Really? PF seem to have agreed on the former question enough to have published it in XML GL:- [[[ 3.1 Provide default style sheets for multiple output modalities where possible. ]]] - http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-xmlgl-20010829 We didn't tend to put things in XML GL that we didn't have at least a rough consensus on (even with the "no endorement..." clause), and I don't recall anyone causing a fuss about this particular checkpoint. If there had have been a fuss, we should have delayed publication. The latter question would also appear to be a bit of a no-brainer. In any case, these are important questions and should they not have been answered, then I think that it more than befits GL to give the groups a little/big prod into action. I think that one of the more important and relevant questions in this case is actually, "how much is a default presentation a standard presentation?", and that's something that is pertinent to the F2F agenda. And of course, pre-reading and pre-dicussion (collectively: "preparation") is normally nothing but useful. Cheers, -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
