Now that we've had some fun with this, IMHO believe X/Open needs to open the
XFN spec up for discussion to the URI group if they expect to be successful in
delaying/intergrating/converging/add-your-own-term the work. I would be
willing to pay for the spec if I could (legally) distribute it to the list.
How 'bout it ?
