Final draft of Proposed Binary Module

We have pleasure in announcing what we hope is the final draft of the 
specification of the EXPath Binary module at:

    http://expath.org/spec/binary

    (A revision markup version from that published 20th September is
    available at http://expath.org/spec/binary/20131113/diff)

We think that all the issues raised over the previous months have been 
addressed and the specification can now proceed towards a 'last call' 
and promotion to '1.0' status. We thank all those who have made 
constructive criticisms and assisted in beating this spec. into 
something we hope can be solid, long-lasting and useful. Other 
information regarding the module (samples, implementation notes etc.) 
will be published under http://expath.org/modules/binary/. A test suite 
is available and pointed to from the specification.

All we need now is general consensus from the EXPath community that this 
specification can now be 'put to bed'.

Jirka Kosek,
John Lumley
