      Applied proposal as above as directed by the motion in the comments: https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/camp/download.php/51494/camp-spec-v1.1-wd31.doc

      Patrick Durusau submitted the following PR comment (https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/camp-comment/201309/msg00050.html):

      Under 4.2 Deployment Plan Overview, I find:

      *****
      Example 1: Minimal DP describing an application consisting of a single
      RPM file.
      *****

      Not recognizing "RPM file" I searched the rest of the specification.

      I may be mistaken but the only uses of RPM that I can find are in 4.2,
      4.2.1 and 4.2.2.

      It is variously:

      *****
      Example 1: single RPM file

      Following paragraph, first sentence: a single RPM package

      4.2.1 Types, first paragraph, next to last sentence: a group of PaaS
      providers could agree to use the artifact type "org.rpm:RPM" to
      identify RPM packages.

      Example 2: how to install the RPM

      Following paragraph, second sentence: describe the relationship of the
      RPM artifact to some (unspecified) service.

      Paragraph following Example 3, first sentence: parameters of the
      service on which the RPM is to be installed.

      Paragraph following Example 3, last sentence: ndicates that the target
      service for the RPM is a Linux instance.
      *****

      I understand that the RPM isn't changing based on whether it is called
      a file, artifact, etc. but introducing an acronym without expansion
      and then choosing different ways to refer to it, can only lead to
      misunderstanding.

      If RPM is just an arbitrary label, then say so. And then don't refer
      to it by various other terms.
