We might wish to offer our thoughts on those issues. I think that would be a good idea. Some thoughts I had when looking at the TAG document included... * The lack of a byte-oriented table of contents means no ability to use HTTP Range to fetch an individual item, or to fetch multiple parts in parallel (consider a 3-hour long video with text captions in a following part) * Similarly you can't easily extract individual items, hence might not be suitable for storing an ebook on disk (you _can_ do that with zip) Liam -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/
