I'm not understanding why you are reaching this conclusion. Wouldn't the exact same thing be true whether the mapping is normatively expressed in XSLT or English prose? If a mandatory extension changes the semantics then the extension would have to provide a new mapping, whether or not it is expressed in XSLT or English prose, wouldn't it? I suppose the new mapping could be expressed in terms of a set of diffs from the old one, but again, this would be true of both XSLT and English prose. Can you clarify why you think the situation is different if the XSLT is normative? thanks, David Booth
