Yes, we are in the business of providing guidelines,
but we are also in the business of being magisterial
and positive in our primary publication. Parts of NH
are a summary of ideas floating around a research
community, not widely agreed or implemented,
and should be presented in that way, not
as part of our flagship. I am with Dan, put them
out as a TEI white paper (how many metaphors can I
fit in), run it up the flagpole, and see who salutes.
