Trimmed definitions to make the section more readable; avoided words like 'vendors', 'purchasers' which do not apply to all (eg open source) implementations, 'regulators' which was redundant, 'certifiers' which is optional (for testing) and developers, which is non-specific (implementors vs integrators).
