"Normative" and "Informative" reference in an ER

[cnreediii]

Since an ER is not an official OGC document (such as a standard), is there any reason to have only "normative references" in the References section? Seems to me that any reference for a given ER should be in the References section. Thus, no need to put "informative" references in the Bibliography. This would be a minor change to the template and use of the template.

I support the proposal by @cnreediii because it would bring the template in line with scientific papers, technical reports and other research documents.
