Title: Message
Tell
me about it, I'm already experiencing this first hand (XQuery depends on W3C XML
Schema). What I find interesting is that Henry T is equating "new work" with the
kind of work a *standards* body is supposed to be tackling. This seems to be the
opposite of what a body that should be setting "standards" should be doing and
it shows in the current family of technologies coming out of the W3C.

Um, as regards XML, you're joking, right? Look at the
history. It's _completely_ unlike HTML, it was way out ahead of
what any vendors were thinking about, much less trying-and-failing to
interoperate. It was in fact a lot like XSLT and XML Schema:
real new science was done in the
WGs.
Henry,
New "science" is arguably a potentially
dangerous approach for a standards-setting body/group to take. Not least when
it is paralleled by associated embedding of requirements for use of the result
(XSD Schema) in other W3C technologies.
