The thread (so far as I'm sure which one you're referencing, since
there's no direct reply to Steven's message 0158) is at:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2002Jul/thread.html#19

This message in particular:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2002Jul/0199.html

reads like an acknowledgment that the XLink WG did in fact say more or
less "the hell with XHTML" (and architectural forms).  

History isn't always pretty, and sometimes grudges have real
foundations.
