"If Type(callbackfn) is not a function, throw a TypeError exception."

There is no function Type defined in ES 3.1. Are you incorporating the
ES4 Type, or does callbackfn must implement [[Call]]?

It would be sufficient and more correct to say: "throw a TypeError"
rather than "throw a TypeError exception"

As with my comment for ES4, there are many benefits to having the spec
in HTML. It is easy to link directly to a fragment, it doesn't take a
plugin, I don't get prompted to update Acrobat Reader, HTML is not
slow to load as launching Reader is.

But most of all, it is easier for the rest of the world to link to and
discuss (if that is desirable to the committee)

Garrett
