I think what bothers me about all this is the apparent imprimatur approval of OASIS for the work. Of course anyone can do what they want, but I think a standards-based group like OASIS has a different duty. Which was I was curious to see the detailed technical report showing why the long-standing `standard' DTD for text encoding, the TEI, was not being used for the project. I am sorry, but the answers have been interesting, but pretty much anecdotal and sometimes simplistic. If you want to tell me that a) I have completely misremembered, and OASIS has nothing to do with this, or b) its none of my business, thats OK too.....
