[Shabtay] Ok. I understand and have no issue with dropping the word
"candidate". 

I also though hard about the

[Shabtay] I think the front page is important and should be consistent
with the footer in each page. 

I also agree with your wording so please add "Draft Specification
Release Version 2.0" to the front page.
