I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I
think you can submit your corrected file as a
replacement for the good/fair/poor one. I'm not
exactly sure how, though. I don't think just putting
that in the comments section works, because only the
valdiator gets to see that, as I understand -- though
maybe it goes through the whole process, and after
validation it replaces the poorer copy. Or perhaps you
can send it directly to Jesse or Peter as an
attachment with a note that it's a replacement, and
let them decide what to do with it.
