  Aaron, 

  Thanks for the reply. Can you clarify whether the SMIL 2.0 spec has gone 
  backwards or not? The issuing of a "non-last call" WD seems a departure from 
  the February 2001 process document: 
  http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Process-20010208/tr.html#Recs 
  at least as I read it. 

  Your reply seems to indicate that rather than moving backwards the SMIL 2.0 
  spec is close to progress to CR. Am I understanding you correctly? 
  Yes the SMIL 2.0 spec is close to progress to CR. This latest March 2001 Working Draft includes updates from issues raised during Last Call.

    The March 2001 draft is not a last call draft. It is simply an update 
    included changes from our last call period which ended several months ago. 
    We expect to advance the specification to the next phase soon.

      I was wondering if anyone knows the intended duration of the last call 
      period 
      for the 1st March 2001 WD of SMIL 2.0. I was unable to locate a statement 
      as 
      to the duration of the last call period in the part of the WD where I 
      would 
      typically expect to find it. 

      I also noticed that mention is made of the XHTML + SMIL profile. Does 
      progress of SMIL 2.0 to CR, depend on further progress on XHTML+SMIL?
