r12a would like us to drop the trailing periods from the section numbers.

Really? The period is analogous to list markers.

Pointer to his request?

Found the thread. I thought I was just copying what the old preprocessor did, but Fonts is on the old processor, and it doesn't have dots after its section numbers. I'm fine with changing this, whatever.

for posterity's sake, here's the original comment:

fwiw, it looks like respec does the dot after the top level number, but not after the lower level section numbers, which i guess is fine.

what i was more interested in, however, was that section 7 numbering was wierdly different. All counters in section 7 (only?) end with a dot.

That's... weird. I'm not sure why that's happening.

(The sample page was copy-pasted bikeshed output with a bunch of bikeshed-specific things stripped out... since its goal isn't to be a bikeshed output sample, but a /TR requirements sample. The weird numbering was just human error, and has been fixed.)
