John,

We agree - this is something we do eventually want to do, but we haven't got 
around to it yet. 

We may end up specifying more than one profile - a simple/minimal one for 
devices with very minimal memory/cpu (it might also leave out bits like floor 
0, which aren't really used any more), and a more complex one that leaves 
most of the full spec flexibility in, but limits things like codebook and 
packet sizes to sane levels. None of this is really decided on yet, though.

Mike
