Improvement suggestions
I read this specification. It is good document but I would suggest the following comments.

(1) The title should be ACS 1.0. ""Revision 1 is redundant.

(2) Since OGSA is a trademark of GGF, it should be mentioned
 in the first page.

(3) Policy rule (on page 4) is too generic. Should be called
 more specific term.

(4) Section 1.2 need some examples which explain what are out
 of scope.

(5) Section title 2.1.2. I am not sure what does "Grid"
 mean here.

(6) Section 2.1.3 needs more explanation.

(7) Section 2.4 should read "OGSA WSRF BP" instead
 of "OGSA infrastructure."

(8) Section 3.1.5. Please explain the difference between AA
Identifier and WS-Name.

(9) I think section 3.2.1 should be a part of Chapter 5.

(10) Section 3.3.4 mentions Byte-IO and GridFTP as a part
of OGSA-data WG. However, these are developed by the other
WGs.

(11) Section 3.3.5 refers OGSA WSDM profile but it is not yet
planned.

(12) Since chapter 7 is not normative, please use "must"
 instead of "MUST."

(13) Schema definitions in section 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 need GGF 
copyright statement.

(14) I prefer to separate normative reference and non-normative reference (page 74). Also OGSA WSRF BP and WSRF 
references are not uptodate.

Removed from the cover page.
It is intended to indicate the internal revision during the review process.

Trademark statement is inserted.

Removed the "policy rules" from the description.

Chapter 1 is an introductory chapter which is non-normative. It is not intended to precisely exhaust all the out of 
scope items. We decided to keep the original text.

Changed "Grid" to "Grid application" so that it makes sense.

Changed section title and description to improve readability.

Instead of refer each document name, replace the sentence as below:
The service must be implemented as an OGSA service based on profiles developed by OGSA-WG.

AAID is a producer provided information and specified in ACS, while WS-Name should be provided by ACS repository. We 
assume that use of the WS-Name should be specified by other specification than ACS itself.

The document have below text in Chapter 5, while we decided to keep the text in section 3.2.1. as it is.

5.1.4 Other requirements for the ACS implementation
To be conformant to OGSA WSRF Basic Profile, the ApplicationRepository MUST 
implement the following portTypes.

5.2.5 Other requirements for the ACS implementation
To be conformant to OGSA WSRF Basic Profile, the ApplicationArchive 
implementation MUST implement the following portTypes.

Changed text to address this comment as below:
ACS provides an extension point for protocols which allow implementations to specify which protocols are supported. The 
ACS team has reviewed briefings and draft documents developed by data-releated WGs in GGF such as OGSA-DATA, OGSA-ByteIO
, GridFTP.

Changed text to address this comment as below:
The ACS specification leaves the manageability aspect to the standards set by external references
