Looks like an unintentional omission, but let me do some
checking first before I say more - and I welcome comments
from other members of DC-Coverage TF. I am plowing through
all of the dc-coverage group's requests for change today
and tomorrow and shall have a revised Coverage Element
document (including this point) be Wednesday morning about
9am PST.

The current version of Mary's Coverage paper (linked from the DC Web site) 
contains all of the following.  So I'm puzzled about the suggestion for an 
unqualified DC.coverage element.  What would it mean?

    coverage.periodName
    coverage.placeName
    coverage.x.min
    coverage.x.max
    coverage.y.min
    coverage.y.max
    coverage.z
    coverage.t.min
    coverage.t.max
    coverage.polygon.include
    coverage.polygon.exclude
    coverage.line

Mary - Is the absence of coverage.z.min and coverage.z.max intentional?
