We put the technical material in a new part. The problem is that you have a
tuturial. You can either put that as an informative annex to the overview,
or as a separate TR. Note that 8879 did both: it had an informative tutorial
as an annex and then started a multipart technical report (9573) to provide
a longer set of examples (including example entity sets). This latter
approach fits more neatly with the W3C convention of having lots of
explanatory documents relating to a formal description.
