If it were, it ought to have a specific element for advertisements [A]. I think it is aimed at the intra- and extra-net markets and particularly for the sort of company that is based on knowledge which is not finely structured in the way that a sales catalogue is structured. > Also, does anyone have any idea of when XHTML 2.0 will be ready for > public use? I think when people given the limited time they have for the project, think it is well structured and self consistent. Although I imagine it will become a CV must-have item, it may well not belong on many of those CVs. [A] the advertisers may object to this because it makes it easy to mechanically delete the adverts, but, otherwise, advertising isn't consistent with a language which has correct, if simple, represenation of structure as a goal, as it is striving to break the structure to prevent its being ignored.
