However, we need to ensure that any changes we make are taken into the [[Definition|root definition]]. So far this page has been ''following'' the root definition and matches the stable version 1.1. Perhaps we should create a separate page for the "Libre Works" definition which can ''lead'' to the new root definition and become version 2.0 of the "Libre Works Definition"?<ref>I will go ahead and set [[Libre/Unstable|this]] up, as [[Libre|this page]] needs to match the current [[Definition|stable 1.1 root version]] for the time being (until a new version is released). - ~~~~</ref> | ||
