 Having said that, you are trying to change the direction of a tanker when at least half the crew who are steering it are firmly convinced it is going in the right direction, and is within sight of land; I acknowledge that tanker steering is started early and is difficult to change ... concerns on these issues have been expressed for a long time already. so even if you get people to hear you, you have a challenge ahead to convince them. And they aren't morons, either. I sincerely apologize if anything I wrote left the impression I believe they are ... I didn't say what they were doing was technically self-inconsistent or poorly designed for what they wanted to do ... I said that what they were doing were disenfranchising the document community who needs more than XPath 1.0 and less than a PSVI. It would seem to me the design was hijacked by those without document concerns but with programming concerns, and the technical solution being proposed far exceeds the needs of a *big* constituency of document users. And I thought this was expressed *long* ago in time to change the direction of the tanker. I have a lot of respect for the technical ability of you and your WG colleagues and all the effort you are putting in to this when others of us are unable, and would hate to be seen as feeling otherwise. ...................
