There are times when I wonder whether I get a different version of this list than do other readers. In the past few weeks I've heard: 1) Excellent technical arguments for and against the inclusion of three namespaces in XHTML 2) Detailed exploration of the relationships between namespaces and XML 1.0, and different possibilities therein, not to mention similar issues in updating XML 1.0 to deal with Unicode 3.0 3) Better explanation of the grove concept than I've heard previously in my three years working with XML 4) Intelligent discussion of different possibilities for development models and processes building on XML. 5) Examination of the boundaries between scripting and data I'm sure there's a lot more I could come up with, if I took the time to go back and read more of the messages. While this does involve an overflowing mailbox, it also represents an impressive gathering of minds that can examine difficult issues in depth, present different solutions, and still maintain some level of coherence. But heck, maybe I'm just an obstructionist!
