No.  But if the WG actually accepts MicroXML as a work item, and we
agree to hand it off, then we'd have to stop working on it.  It serves
no one for there to be two evolving MicroXML specs, the CG flavor and
the WG flavor.

Be yourself.  Especially do not feign a working knowledge of RDF where
no such knowledge exists.  Neither be cynical about RELAX NG; for in
the face of all aridity and disenchantment in the world of markup,
James Clark is as perennial as the grass.  --DeXiderata, Sean McGrath
