I'm just arguing that we could have one syntax and one set of style processors (DSSSL-fixed and DSSSL-programmable) instead of two syntaxes and two sets of style processors CSS and DSSSL-complete. Which isn't to argue that CSS should be discarded. It is probably more simply hand-editable than DSSSL. I just don't think that most SGML tools need to implement it. They could just implement DSSSL-fixed. Paul Prescod
