Re: Will MNX CG meet during TPAC?

Thanks, Adrian. Sorry to miss you at TPAC this year, but we will
certainly keep MNX aprised of the direction we're going on embedded
objects. Being APA, we're looking for a solution that can accomodate
various types of specialized markup objects where the general browser
may not always be the most functional tool--especially when it also
needs to be an accessible tool. 

In short we're contemplating proposing a kind of iframes on steroids
approach which hands off the interface to a special user agent, perhaps
Muse Score in the case of scored music, and then returns to the browser
when the object is exited. Anyway, that's a summation of our current
thinking. We'll see how that goes over with other groups and especially
the HTML and browser folks.

Thanks again for the prompt response.
