Re: [Draft] Transition Request: XInclude 1.1 to Last Call Working Draft

I'm already commenting on my own email.

First, this is a Transition Announcement, not request (I think,
Liam, correct me if I'm wrong).

Next, I'm adding a couple paragraphs below to the announcement.

The previous publication was a Candidate Recommendation at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/CR-xinclude-11-20131008/
As the WG took into account comments and feedback, we
decided to add a few more things, hence we are going
back to a Last Call.  If we have enough implementation
experience with the new features in this Last Call, we
make transition directly to Proposed Recommendation next.

There are no Working Groups with dependencies on this document,
although review from any WG would be welcome.
