GMNX already consists of SVG plus temporal info.  Please see:

        https://w3c.github.io/mnx/overview/#gmnx-structure

And the specific discussion around embedding vs. cross-referencing temporal
data is already well-captured in this GMNX issue which you opened:

      https://github.com/w3c/mnx/issues/25

It's clear from the thread that some CG members feel that cross-referencing
has advantages over embedding. We do understand that you prefer embedding.
The GMNX specification, when drafted, will take its best shot at resolving
this question.

Overall, it seems that the existing framework for raising and discussing
issues is working fine. Let's move on with respect to the repositories
question. When a concensus begins to emerge within the group that a single
repo is unwieldy, we can always change that.

Best,
...Joe
