Hi everyone. It's great that everyone seems keen again on getting
down to
some business. I was starting to lose hope. I hope now that soon we
will
have substantial gains made once we are able to answer the vital
questions
necessary to get to the next level: establishing the actual
programming
model of XPL. However, first we need to have a framework in place in
which
to operate. Once this has become a reality, things will be much more
organized, and we will all know where to put our ideas in order to
ensure
they are not lost in confusion, and will be addressed quickly.
In addition, this will encourage others to contribute where they can,
by
making it easier for them to focus on their strengths, access
information
related to their ideas and contributions more effectively, and have
an all
around better idea of the current and ongoing state of XPL.
Since this is a cooperative effort, I am asking you all to look at
this
table of contents, and add your points to the list of items where
appropriate (please refrain from writing up issues - just points at
issue
will be included). Feel free to discuss, disseminate, and add
anything you
feel is necessary towards the development of XPL. Once we have
established
a framework of issues from which we can easily draw information from
and put
information into, we will be on the way to some serious development.
You may note that this TOC is somewhat similar to the Working Drafts
that
the W3C issues. This is not an accident. The goal of this entire
document
is to eventually have a completed draft. As a working draft, this
document
will be made available online, at our website, with links to messages
which
relate to the specific points. It is the hope that this will
facilitate
easy access to ongoing discussions, while providing everyone with the
overall picture of the project as a whole. The final version of the
draft,
which will be submitted as a Note to the W3C, will have only the
accepted
points.
