Apologies for butting in on this so late, but I don't understand why it is so important that EARL should support reports for anything outside the Web. After all, this is a WG of the World Wide WEB Consortium, not the World Wide Stuff Consortium or the Universe Consortium (I know this may sound tart). When the Style Activity was working on CSS, they probably did not care about styling toasters or space shuttles, but only markup languages. I appreciate that a more generic EARL would be useful, but I think the primary focus should be on web technologies and that we should leave features for other technologies to other interested parties (e.g. the Toaster Museum Foundation at www.toaster.org, to which some of you refer in code samples ;-) Regards, Christophe -- Christophe Strobbe K.U.Leuven - Departement of Electrical Engineering - Research Group on Document Architectures Kasteelpark Arenberg 10 - 3001 Leuven-Heverlee - BELGIUM tel: +32 16 32 85 51 http://www.docarch.be/
