    ++1.  The heralds of the death march to the sea are the 
    siren calls from the shipwrecks.  Best to keep to the 
    interfaces.  
    
    JUST FYI:
    
    Most of you are likely aware that the version/namespace 
    issue is back in front of the W3C tag.  In summary:
    
    1.  Namespaces a theoretically infinite sets if one 
    thinks a the NSURI identifies the collection.
    
    2.  The conservative interpretation is the NSURI is 
    just a syntax wall for distinguishing say, xhtml:p from 
    html:p, but has no semantic implications and doesn't 
    really name the set.  It is good practice architecturally 
    to put a resource (document, control, whatever) at the 
    location the URI locates (simply by dint of being a URI). 
    Discussions are ongoing about the best form of that resource 
    (eg, OWL, RDDL, XML Schema, etc.).
    
    3.  Some different proposals are being discussed for 
    using version atts and perhaps even attaching these 
    to the NSURI as a relative value.

    All these larger issues do need attention, at the appropriate time 
    and in the appropriate venues... but I'm suggesting that this TC may 
    get more done by "sticking to our knitting" than by letting ourselves 
    be embroiled into other people's issues.
