Open issues

Reviewing the last week's mail, I find the following open issues
for discussion: (Apologies if these are cryptic, typing fast...)

1. Placement of ignored content?

  Inside p:pipe, p:document, p:inline?

2. Allow p:ignored-prefixes everywhere?

3. XHTML in the ignored namespaces by default?

4. Ability to remove things from ignored namespaces?

5. Import precedence

  Can you replace a declared-step or pipeline with another
  with exactly the same signature

  The space is flat, right?

6. Pipeline visibility

  Two pipelines in the same library can see each other?

  Order is insignificant?

7. Order of input/output/param/option

  Fixed or (choice)*

8. Interpretation of type name on declare-step

  Unprefixed is in no namespace or default namespace

  Steps in no namespace are not allowed

9. Names of pipelines

   NCNames in a namespace per the library (status quo)
   exported-name attribute (Jeni)
   separate namespace attribute on pipeline?

10. Solution for the caching problem

  *-with-sequence
  general caching
  cache input to p:group

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
