A brief description, from Section 1 of the draft:
-------------------------------------
Common XML begins with a frequently used and thoroughly reliable subset of
the 
features provided by the XML 1.0 and Namespaces in XML W3C Recommendations.  
Common XML defines a very small core, but allows developers to move beyond
that 
core if needed.  Additional features from XML 1.0 and Namespaces are still 
available. This specification includes descriptions of the impact of features 
beyond the core on interoperability.
-------------------------------------

Comments are welcome, either to the editor (me) at simonstl@s...,
or to the SML-DEV mailing list:
http://www.egroups.com/group/sml-dev/info.html

We're hoping to close review by September 1 and move toward a final
release.  If Rick liked it, I'd like to think we're doing something right.

This document is the product of a mailing list, not a formal organization,
so our publishing process is still in development, of course!
