In considering the vote on the SMIL 1.0 specification, I'm a little concerned by the fact that there is nothing at all in the document that mentions HyTime (one way or the other). I'm far from being an expert in this area, and so I may be misled on this subject, but my understanding is that HyTime is designed to address at least some of the issues being addressed by SMIL. In view of the relationships between SMIL and XML, XML and SGML, and SGML and HyTime, it seems to me that some explicit mention of HyTime, and its relationship or non-relationship to SMIL (e.g., why it is irrelevant here), would be appropriate, if only to fend off any unnecessary concerns that the wheel is being reinvented for no good reason. Thanks for your consideration. --Frank ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Frank Manola www: http://www.objs.com Object Services and Consulting, Inc. email: fmanola@objs.com 151 Tremont Street #22R voice: 617 426 9287 Boston, MA 02111
