I don't recognize the set formulation as being mine.  They are one of the 
approaches being tried as the TAG works toward a finding on versioning, 
but of all the TAG members I am probably among the less enthusiastic about 
the approach, in part because I don't yet see how it deals with the shades 
of gray that I outlined in my note earlier today.  I'm not hard over 
against the set approach either, just trying to see how it works out.  In 
nay case, I think it was Dave Orchard who advocated the set-based approach 
on in this xml-dev thread.
