Key: (1) Comment icon embedded in each section heading linking to section-specific comments; (2) active contents list extracted from the section headings; (3) print versions as HTML and PDF; (4) numeric or author/date citation automatically linked to corresponding reference in footnote window; (5) a reverse hyperlink is inserted for each citation of a reference; (6) an editorial note to draw attention to a controversial issue in the author–reviewer debate that ‘made it’ into the published version; (7) section-specific review comment; (8) an editorial comment summarizing the review discussion and specifying change requirements. (Note that there are two versions of the user interface: one as shown, and for smaller displays, the document and discussion are placed in separate browser windows.)
