##### Trivial contributions

Trivial contributions may be accepted without coverage from the agreement. A trivial contribution is one that fits one of the following categories:

* Makes no changes to the visible text content (for example, fixing broken links, style sheets, or markup).
* Does not affect conformance (e.g., corrects a typographic error in a descriptive sentence), which should not change architectural or interoperability requirements for an implementation. Such changes should be small in scope (e.g., on the order of a few dozen characters changed at most); correcting non-normative code examples where the code clearly conflicts with normative requirements is fine, adding new non-normative code examples is not.

If there is any doubt or disagreement as to whether requirements are changed, such contributions should not be considered trivial.
