Thanks Jon, Understood and agreed. I think that any early implementations (from a document labelled DO NOT IMPLEMENT :-) can expect to be transient. I expect these discussions will have some of the flavour of discussions about APIs (which seem to be making good progress). If XML-DEV does throw up agreement, I am sure enough ERB/WG members will take note.
