6PAN Spec question

My question is, what sort of information actually belongs in a final
version of the 6PAN spec? I'm assuming it will at least include 6PAN Package
format (layout, metadata, etc), and I'd suggest that it also include the
layout of packages on the 6PAN server.
Some have suggested a particular install tool process/sequence, and
indeed there's a lot of information currently in S22 about this. Does this
actually need to be in the spec, or would we be better off having a separate
6PAN module working team that worries about this, and gets the wealth of
detail out of the spec, because it seems to me like a lot of this is design
notes for writing code, rather than a Spec.
(If nobody objects or comments, I'll refactor it into two separate
documents, S22-6PAN, and design notes for actual software).
:)
