    Ok, so are you agreeing or disagreeing with what I proposed? It sounds 
    like you agree that we should not attempt to define an XSD (schema) for 
    ICS 201, but then you mention preparing a process spec and not address 
    the front end (GUI), which is what I *think* we can do with XForms. Or 
    are you saying that even touching this with a 10 foot pole (ie: XForms 
    too) is way to close?
    
    Just wanting to make sure I am not misunderstanding. Personally, I 
    could go either way. I just know that I have a comfort issue with the 
    XSD. Jury is out on the XForms idea - it was just a thought that I felt 
    was better than defining an XSD.
