 ## Abstract
 
+<!--
 Please describe by example what problem you see in the current Solidity language
 and reason about it.

 ## Motivation
 
+<!--
 In this section you describe how you propose to address the problem you described earlier,
 including by giving one or more exemplary source code snippets for demonstration.
+-->
 
 ## Specification
 
+<!--
 The technical specification should describe the syntax and semantics of any new feature. The
 specification should be detailed enough to allow any developer to implement the functionality.
+-->
 
 ## Backwards Compatibility
 
+<!--
 All language changes that introduce backwards incompatibilities must include a section describing
 these incompatibilities and their severity.
 
 Please describe how you propose to deal with these incompatibilities.
