SensorML specification

 D (Create New Document)
Use one of the following categories:
F (Critical correction)
A (corresponds to a correction in an earlier release)
B (Addition of feature),
C (Functional modification of feature)
D (Editorial modification)

Reason for change:


 SWE Common encodings are used thorough the suite of SWE specifications.
Implementers need to have a clear understanding of the SWE Common
concepts to implement most of the SWE standards (SOS, SAS, SPS,
SensorML), hence it would be easier if there is a distinct document to point
them to.

Summary of change:  Create a separate OGC document with a new number. Extract all SWE
Common sections from SensorML 1.0 Implementation Specification (07-000)
in to this new document.
Consequences if
not approved:

 It will be harder to refer implementers to the SWE Common aspects if it is lost
in the SensorML specification.
