I must admit that I've only heard the other side of the argument, i.e. from those who want to "gut" it into something that is more easily understandable and implementable in v 1.0. I haven't followed the list closely enough to have an opinion on the question of subsetting vs conformance levels. Could someone please back up a bit and put this into context for non- specialists? Also, recall that the majority of people here don't have access to the W3C mail archives ... Why would a "gutted" XPointer spec be worse than no XPointer spec? And why is there still no XPointer Recommendation if the current spec is worth fighting for?
