[Geojson] Outstanding Issues?

[Jason Birch]

OK, I'm probably just feeling cranky this morning, but the click-through
license agreement on that link really annoyed me.

Is there any way that somebody can see the contents of that
specification without clicking through a license agreement?  Is the use
of the specification contingent on the acceptance of the license
agreement?

I hate the idea of "licensing" the right to make my data interoperable.

Add (in Specification)?

-----------------------------------
5. GeoJSON is intended for use as a software-to-software encoding for
features and their geometry.  GeoJSON contains no definition of the
meaning of the geometry constructs, nor any explicit or implicit rules
on the 'validity' of the encoded geometry (other than that it must be
encoded as described).  However, for maximum interoperability, it is
recommended that the encoded geometry follow the definitions and rules
of the OGC Implementation Specification for Geographic information -
Simple features access - Part 1: Common architecture
(http://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=18241).
