Their documents provides an interesting case study of how the TEI is
perceived from the outside and is as such quite interesting.  At this
moment, I lack the time for working on a detailed reply.  I would
suggest that we (Lou?) contact Nick Finke and see if he is willing to
draft a reply, which we then could discuss and use as a base to send
out as "The Councils Reply", which I am willing to prepair.

Hear, hear.  We are making good process however and will hopefully
continue during the crucial period of the next month.

All the best,
