Re: Michael Sperberg-McQueen

This is very sad news.

From the time I got to know him in the meetings he was thoughtful,
pragmatic, and was very knowledgeable about XML Schema and associated
specs. His pressence and contributions will be missed.

I propose we add a "Dedicated to the memory of" or similar entry to the
specs in the section that lists the editors, etc.

Kind regards,
Reece
