| It seemed very clear from your initial posting on www-tag that the TAG
| was much more interested in forcing XHTML to use the "generic" XLink

I've already admitted that the tone of that message was unfortunate
and apologized for it[1].

In any event, I think it's quite a leap from "the TAG thinks HTML
should use XLink" to "the whole world must use XLink (or some other
technology)"

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
