Tim, read the subsequent messages re file sizes and scalability.
I want to know this as much as you do. We did some very basic work in XML
starting in lat 1997, and our community ran with it. We have some very
knowledable and hard-working people working on Frontier. Especially look at
the Howson site and tell me what you think.
We're working up two sides of the same hill. I'm sure of it. I'm also sure
we haven't reached the nirvana that you're seeking. But if we're close, and
if there's value in what you want, let's go there.
