As per my previous email, I'm simply saying that Explain Lite is not
something that the ZIG should recommend as a replacement for Explain as it
only does plain library catalogue environments and Z39.50 Is Not Just For
Libraries. We need to be able to say in good faith, 'You should build
your client against this schema'.
