Your right, but see other mail from Frank D.(sp).  I dropped a few things
when I summarized above.  

Did you look in /pub/cdrom/faq/*, read those files there are probably
pointers to many of the specs in there.  Or send mail to rab@cdrom.com
if all else fails, I am sure he can point you to the source for the
specs.
