Re: Perspective: XML's ticking time bomb

["David T. Perkins" <dperkins@dsperkins.com>]

HI,

Here is some feedback....
I read through your I-D, and I listened to the presentation at
the IETF conference this summer. 

And I find in Andy's short email message more insight and inspiration
for forward progress than I found in the presentation or I-D.

So, I'm not sure why the I-D should be used as the basis for
additional work?
