Hi,

I strongly encourage "you guys" (the WG) to come up with a good name
for this before you release it. Once the cat is out of the bag in the
form of a final spec there will be no further opportunity to change
it. Without reopening the debate, it is only fair to all parties to
adopt a new name instead of generating confusion byissuing something
new called RSS.

Jeff;

I share this concern. It's beginning to look like the WG members want just
to
sweep this issue under the table ... wish only that it should go away. Well
I
for one think that sucks!
