RE: data model

Why would there be more than one abstract data model for MicroXML ?
I could see many concrete models, but why different abstract models ?
Am I being future-blind?

I guess the conformance clauses can be split into two levels though - so that some can claim parser conformance to everything except the data model (in case there is an alternative data model which becomes popular, etc)

I guess in this case, the spec should be split up into two seperate specs: one for the data model and one for the rest.
However, in my opinion that would harm the overall benefit of MicroXML as it is at the current state: a self-contained short and feasible spec.

Just my 2 cents,

Would it be feasible for (say, in future) a version of the spec to
not include the data model? I'm thinking back to the way the
XML included DTD and how DTD became a bit odd to be in the
spec once XML Schema came to the fore.
