FYI - quick notes about a short call today - Steve, Tara, and I hung out on the DFDL call today for about 20 minutes to see if we'd get a quorum. We didn't. We noted that the availability of the prototype from Ascential seems to be a pre-requisite for further discussions about the reader/writer/filter/function ideas and resolving the issues around transform versus sub-type centric approaches. (I'm glad its not me in the critical path this time!) In any case, I think we agreed that we need the prototype, or some description of it, soon to get the discussion moving again and make another productive f-2-f possible. Jim
