+== Scope
+This OGC Policy Document defines the OGC Policy and Guidance related to the use of the ModSpec.
+
+The ModSpec defines characteristics and structure for the specification of Standards 
+that will encourage implementation by minimizing difficulty determining
+requirements, mimicking implementation structure and maximizing usability and
+interoperability. 
+
+Part 1 of the ModSpec defines the requirements for using UML. 
+The use case is if the organizing mechanism for the data model 
+used in a standard is an object model, then the mapping from parts of the model to 
+the requirements classes should follow the logical mechanism described in Part 1 of the ModSpec.
+
+Part 2 of the ModSpec defines the requirements for using XML. The XML related requirements classes 
+cover any standard which has as one of its purposes the introduction of a new XML schema. 
+Such a standard would normally define the schema, all of its components, and its intended uses.
