Since this strikes me as an implausible date for the query language LC, 
and I believe that Protocol is dependent on the query langauge, then I 
find this an implausible date for protocol LC.

Things that need to be completed for protocol (IMHO):
	1) XML syntax for query language with XML Schema description (kendall 
and I are working on that; of course, bit of a moving target as the 
query language keeps changing, or potentially changing)
	2) Sensible XML Schemable XML output format (I thought this was the 
same as the xsi:type discussion, but I'm happy to raise a separate 
issue).

Once these are done, the rest is fairly straightforward.

Cheers,
Bijan.

P.S. I don't understand why this was sent to w3c-archive and not 
public-rdf-dawg, which seems more appropriate, so I reply to that 
instead of to w3c-archive.

P.P.S. I thought protocol was on a staggered schedule. 4 days for 
candidate LCs doesn't seem to be a staggering at all, in practice.
