In fact, the Candidate Recommendation phase is the time in which this question must be answered, and the Schema Working Group is not yet in this phase. Test suites and formal models will probably be needed to determine coverage. To enter Candidate Recommendation phase, I don't think that Schema should have to prove the above things. But to *exit* Candidate Recommendation status and proceed to Proposed Recommendation status, Working Group members had better be sure that people are successfully writing implementations, implementations are compatible, and the implementors are not complaining (too much). If we can't demonstrate this, then Schema is not likely to be successful. Jonathan
