This approach is a huge improvement over the current, rather outdated, 
approach of asking sites to publish a POP containing text.

However, this profile contains the word BASELINE in its title; I'm also 
struck that it doesn't include mention of some items that were supposed 
to be included in a POP statement. The obvious examples are already 
called out in the feedback (eg #7, 8,9).

Once this Baseline profile is promulgated, is the AAC planning to 
develop additional profiles layered on top of the Baseline ? Trustmarks 
of some sort ? Should the community push to raise the proposed Baseline 
at least to the level of the POP, or even to a "reasonable level for 
today's world" ?

Or should we wait for the follow on set of profiles ? If this is the 
case, has the AAC begun to think about what that set of profiles might be ?

thanks !
