TEI SO W 01, Differences Between XPointer and the TEI Extended Pointer Mechanism
Not discussed.
TEI SO W 02, ‘executive summary’
Draft complete; DD would like to post as soon as typos fixed.
DD believes ID/IDREF pretty uncontroversial. Concerned about controversy in SOM section, where he says ‘XInclude’, as FV had some custom tags for same purpose that he claims are better. However, FV does not see objections to XInclude as he prefers a standard that's nearly perfect to a home-grown solution that is perfect. JH & SB would like to know what the differences (i.e., shortcomings of XInclude) are.

DD will not be done by next week, but will post something [?...?] (SB had suggested we plan to discuss this paper 03-28, but no resolution on this detail).
