i was wondering: in our hallway conversations at the TPAC, we assumed
that AS1 and AS2 would have different media types anyway, which would
make sense if the underlying metamodel (and thus the processing model)
is completely different. in that case, we really do not need to spend
any effort on superficial syntax alignment, and instead should place the
AS1/AS2 mapping in the processing model section, so that it is clear how
AS1 and AS2 documents relate on the (careful, dirty word ahead!)
"infoset level".
cheers,
dret.
