Re: [dxwg] Should the Guidance doc recognise existing, non-interoperable, profiles as valid

I'm not sure I understand this issue. Trying to rephrase: do we mean that there are profiles that exist prior to our recommendations and that do not follow them, and the questions are whether (1) we agree to name them profile and (2) we seek to judge them as valid or not?

On (1) I'm keen to recognize as profiles everything that matches our definitions even a bit losely - especially if it names itself a profile. 

On (2) I think it's too early to judge. I would wait until we can see how strict (in terms of MUST and SHOULD) our recommendations are.
This said, I can already anticipate that for example we may want to say that some profiles are not very good web citizen because they don't have a URI.
