I was delighted to find your blunt style making the point that the XLink WG had in fact decided that the XHTML WG's desires were unimportant enough to be left behind. I find your recharacterization of the statement and the situation incorrect. The XLink WG quite plainly gave up on achieving both its requirements as originally stated and any effort to mollify the XHTML WG. Ben Trafford may claim that "it wasn't for lack of trying," but something plainly happened - and we're left with an ugly split. In my case, the split is between my two primary communities, so what may seem like ancient history to you is critically important to me. Fixing this is going to be damn hard, but papering over a process failure doesn't seem like a good start. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com
