RE: [Minutes] 2 Dec 2002 TAG teleconference (New issues: XML subsetting, Binary XML, metadata in URIs)

>I didn't receive any pointers.

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2001Sep/0159.html

I supplied this URL via IRC during the TAG call but it appears to have
failed to make it into the minutes.
