Thankyou, no apologies needed. This is really important stuff.

Good to see they got the "Computational thinking" buzzwords in there. I 
hate the term but the direction is good. Better than I expected of ACCE. 
They must be waking from their slumber.

I see computer science is still unpopular. I look forward to the 
Physics, Chemistry and Maths curriculums being renamed to natural 
thinking, material thinking and abstract thinking and all mention of 
science being deleted. Because science is hard, lets go shopping.

One of the biggest points I think is "Dedicated writing team". Yes! 
There doesn't appear to be anyone on the current ACARA technology draft 
team that has a CS or EE background.
