Thank you.  That is relatively clear.

The requirements document is publicly available (3 pages long) at:

	http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-xml-infoset-req

and we hope to have the first WD out Very Soon Now.  It will be
(looking into my crystal ball ...) probably about 15 pages long,
of which maybe a third comprises an RDF schema that is not normative,
as the requirements document says the prose is the normative part.

After WD publication there will be a comment period of a month
at least.  Please try to squeeze in a little bit of time, everyone,
to read the WD make your viewpoints heard.
