Yes, as you point out it is late for XBIS to be considered a
candidate for the baseline format. However, our plan is to pick a
baseline approach to structural encoding, and on that graft (where
possible, without creating a monster) features from others, when
sensible. As you can expect, most participants in the WG are aware of
XBIS, and I believe the chances are very high that we'll be looking
at it closely to steal^Wfind inspiration.
Thanks a lot!
