I therefore don't cast a vote as I am not able to make sufficiently valuable comments on the precise relationship of SAX-J to the DOM. I hope that you are interacting offline with Tim and others and will come up with a proposal that (at least that group) feels is workable. I shall be more than happy with whatever comes out and will pledge that JUMBO will interoperate with it. (JUMBO has been fighting AWT 1.02 and the dreaded rhinovirus recently, but should manage). P.
