	I have to agree with Norm thought process and conclusions.
	Can anyone present a strong argument against Norm's three
	main points:
	
	

		In short:
		
		1. I think allowing a choice is unacceptably risky.
		2. I think requiring XPath 2 is unnecessary.
		3. Anyone anxious to use XPath 2 can do so even if we
don't provide
		   it in V1.0 of the language: authors can use the XSLT
2.0 component
		   and implementors can provide custom components.
		
		Let's choose XPath 1.0 for expressions in the core
language.
		
		                                        Be seeing you,
