Canonical Grove Representation. http://www.ornl.gov/sgml/wg8/docs/n1920/html/clause-A.4.5.html I point this out, not because I think groves and infosets should be mainstream topics of conversation for XML technologists, just to point out that this is old territory in the SGML world. I thought this stuff was off the deep end for SGML and I certainly think this stuff is waaay off the deep end for the vast majority of real world XML applications. I'm a tad horrified to see the PSVI rise dramatically in prominence.
