The item is on agenda, hopefully we can discuss next week. In the meantime, it'd be appreciated if you could clarify what compatibility you're talking about. If I understand the discussion correctly, there are two opinions against the change: 1. "head/foot" is no better than "before/after" 2. The compatibility with XSL-FO. I18N WG can discuss #1 in terms of i18n perspective, but #2 is out of scope of I18N WG in my understanding. Am I correct on this? Also, I'm not clear on what "compatibility" we're talking about. In my understanding, CSS and XSL-FO are not file-compatible, nor property-name-compatible, are they? So we're talking about just whether to use the same terminologies or not. Could you or someone please confirm if these understanding are correct? Regards, Koji
