I think this is a very important point, in particular for production rule systems, which, like HTML, because of a lack of precise semantics, have developed all kinds of proprietary quirks. Notice that in the case of HTML, the subsequent clean-up through the XHTML standard has led the browser vendors to support two processing modes: their old quirks mode and additionally a standards mode that is XHTML compliant (they recognize the required mode by checking if the HTML document conatains a corresponding document type declaration or not). I think a similar development is desirable for production rule systems. -Gerd
