Re: updated document

[Dan Gunter <dkgunter@lbl.gov>]

Yes, that helps.

But from this I take it that there's no "CIM way" of versioning 
profiles. So, maybe instead of the "Grid Middleware" profile it should 
be the "Grid Middleware profile, version 1". If others have a strong 
preference for adding a "version" field instead, I'm all for it. As long 
as we can distinguish it from the inevitable version 2.
