   Yves: did you see last weeks mail from Felix?

   Sebastian: I looked at today's mail, that looked fine

   Christian: Did not look at it, since I don't implement

   Sebastian: The node description might be a problem
   ... i.e. the <output> element
   ... for debugging the difference is interesting, but besides that it
   is fine
   ... if Felix carries on generating that, I will strip out the
   attribute

   Yves: I could do the same

   Felix: how about a counter for each element?

   Yves: for me the output of the selection would be easier to create
   ... Felix found some errors in the draft

   Felix: also in the implementation

   Yves: the last example had some problems

   Felix: maybe because of my XSLT approach

   Yves: So Sebastian and me will try to generate that output
