Yup, it would help if I actually attached the slides.

Some of it will look "awfully familiar" to most of you. At the end, where 1/2 the time of the session will be spent, is a "Requirements Discussion" as we talked about last week on our conference call. I could really use people's suggestions for slides here, provocative statements to get people to react, etc. I haven't had much time to put into this aspect of the presentation. I've mostly figured we need to probe the issue of what we;ve been calling top-down vs. bottom-up use of XML, but I expect there are more topics that we can dig into. ...mike -- dfdl-wg mailing list dfdl-wg@ogf.org http://www.ogf.org/mailman/listinfo/dfdl-wg
