If by "extension documents" you mean the (sub-)specifications referred to from
the main 1.0.0 spec document (ie this page http://www.ldraw.org/Article218.html)
there is no contradiction as the referenced specs were ratified BEFORE the main
1.0.0 spec (they had to be, otherwise the main spec would have referred to
non-ratified documents) and so were ratified against the prior 0.27 spec. It's
the classic chicken-and-egg situation - can't ratify the main spec without the
referenced specs being ratified, but the referenced specs need the main spec to
be ratified so they can conform to it!
