I have recently posted as a comment my personal conclusion about this thread : http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-xinclude-comments/2000May/0001.html XInclude can be very useful if it fixes the well known problem of the handling of external parsed entities by tools such as XSLT processors which rely on XML parsers silently expending external entities references (but this feature would probably have an impact on other recommendations such as XPath). >From my reading of the WD, I have the feeling that this will not be the case, greatly reducing the interest of XInclude IMHO.
