Tie the three specs to EPUB

There should be an introductory paragraph (at least) in each of the three specs (OCF, OPF, OPS) that defines what EPUB is, and that "this" spec is one of the three components. Perhaps we should also incorporate (real soon to be defined) EPUB branding/logo into each of the three specs.
This change will be done during the (real soon now) 2.0.1 maintenance pass over the specs, it can not be done as a simple errata -- it requires mechanical, but substantive, changes throughout the specifications. The required resolution will drive a logical unification (while keeping three documents) pass over all three specifications.
The following two changes should also be made during this pass:
-- OCF should point at OPS/OPF publications, not OEBPS 1.2. Thus, that issue is proposed to be dismissed and moved here.
-- It should entail a change from "OCF" standing for "OEBPS Container Format" to "Open Container Format" (to match OPS and OPF) [finally]
-- All current agreed errata shall be incorporated
-- include a non-normative list of approved extensions -- reference the font mangling informational document from OCF.

Further any previously agreed errata's should be incorporated into their respective specifications during this pass.
