Needs resourcing, basically. I'll raise it with the > W3C. To elaborate slightly on "needs resourcing," I'd be more than happy to see somebody out there contribute primitive datatype support for XSV. It should be fairly straightforward, if tedious, to do, for anybody who knows python. (I say this having only looked at the XSV source code *very* briefly.) Heck... actually, learning python might be a small part of the work, so if you're conversant in any OO language and willing to pore over somebody else's code and the datatypes spec, I'd give you good odds. All I can offer in the way of compensation at this point is widespread acknowledgement, i.e. a little bit of fame. Maybe a t-shirt ;-) But if some enterprising consultant wants to propose some contract work, I suppose everything is negotiable... -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/
