Here are some clarifications for the group's benefit...

1. The FEA DRM is distinct from NIEM and GJXDM.
2. We agree that simplicity is important which is why NIEM (of which
GJXDM forms the initial baseline) is taking a modular approach.  NIEM
0.1 will include a key subset called "universal core".  We are
internally vetting the universal core now.  After internal vetting, we
will release it for public vetting (same as we are doing with the DRM).
3. We are piloting NIEM concepts before we release to insure that the
approach is solid.
