(The revised text stands within [square brackets]. You will notice an inserted "attempt to" at the end, so as not to prejudge what will be achieved.) "In keeping with the spirit of a minimalist design as specified in [its] Charter, the XML Protocol Working Group does not have specific requirements concerning [the support of] binary data [or, more generally, the support of arbitrary non-XML data]. However, the XML Protocol Working Group recognizes that some applications of the XML Protocol will require the exchange of arbitrary non-XML or binary data such as JPEG and PNG. To facilitate such implementations, the XML Protocol Working Group may illustrate how such exchanges may be accomplished in a non-normative section of the XML Protocol specification. These illustrations will [attempt to] leverage the work already done in this area by the ebXML and RosettaNet groups."
