Andrew, The current draft http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-xforms-20020821/ is NOT the Candidate Recommendation; it is a snapshot made public in order to solicit public feedback as we begin the work to make the next phase draft. See the following text from the status section of the document: Following completion of Last Call, the XForms Working Group has agreed to publish this public interim Working Draft incorporating the resolution of all last call issues reported on the XForms 1.0 Last Call Working Draft published on 18 January 2002. This Working Draft is a pre-version the Candidate Recommendation document. Its goal is to show the work on disposition of comments and allow authors of the Last Call comments to review the current XForms specification before we advance to Candidate Recommendation. The two weeks review will close on 4 September 2002. I'm sure you know this, but I want to make sure that the xml-dev community is aware of this process as well: The WG have received a number of public comments, both from you and many from implementors of XForms, and the W3C process requires that these comments be addressed, and that feedback be sought from the commentor. Leigh.
