Would it be possible > for the XML Core WG to add a note about this being undefined in XLink 1.1? The XML Core WG has confirmed its consensus that it is outside the scope of the XLink specification to discuss event handling in terms of DOM. We do not feel this is an unresolved technical issue for the XLink 1.1 specification, nor do we feel it makes sense to list in the XLink 1.1 specification everything that the specification leaves undefined. Does this adequately address your comment, or do you wish for the XML Core WG to record your feelings on this matter as an official objection when we request CR? Paul Grosso for the XML Core WG
