You mentioned this, but I fail to see how a construct in a > language is going to harm to Z? Sure. Company Z is writing software for a device with limited features, on a system which has built-in JavaScript support, but little else, and company X wants the technology to use XPath and XMLSchema, instead of JavaScript, for its dependency tracking. There is no way to implement XPath and XMLSchema in the device Z is targetting. Thus, if X gets its way, Z cannot use the technology. -- Ian Hickson )\._.,--....,'``. fL U+1047E /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. http://index.hixie.ch/ `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.'
