Description

The README states:

This repository contains the source code of the Solid specification, which aims to be a clear, unambiguous, and implementable rewrite of the Unofficial Draft.

And directly below:

For the time being, while the migration is in progress, please refer to the existing draft documents if you want to implement a pod server or a solid app.

Which documents are meant with "the existing draft documents"? Are these the ones in the other "Unofficial Draft" repository?
