Ideally, our document should be reasonably easy to understand for native or non-native English speakers.

I myself (non-native speaker) had hard time understanding some parts given my experience with American English. If you observe some particularly tricky sentences, feel free to complain here :) The goal of that document is to make things easier, not harder for the reader. Best, Ihor
