Re: Blessing DocBk XML?

Did we reach closure on this issue? I got the impression that the response was basically positive, but should I proceed? If so, I think the following would be in order:  1. Release 3.1.7 with an OASIS FPI, 2. Publish it on the OASIS website, and 3. Announce the  blessing  (OASIS may want to do a press release,
but that's up to them AFAIC).  Thoughts? Comments? Would the chair like to call a vote? :-)  / Norman Walsh <> was heard to say:
Norbert has asked me to put my XML version of DocBook on the
OASIS site.  Personally, I'm just fine with that, but it seems
to me that we can't put it on the OASIS site without giving it
some level of  blessing  by the TC. (Even if we don't, it's
avialability on the site will give it some sort of de-facto
blessing anyway.)
I've never been inclined to attempt to get any sort of official
status for my versions because we plan to harmonize towards XML
in 5.0 anyway. But perhaps something  official  would be useful
before that. Realizing that 5.0 is at least 14 months away gives
me a little pause.
Cheers,
norm
