Well, there hasn't been much to say as the spec hasn't changed since March.
Also, until lately, most of the XML development focus was on name spaces
and schemas. I'm sure that as soon as a new spec (or a statement of
requirements, which I guess is the next phase, according to the new
process) appears, we'll have plenty to say.

And of course, some of us have been very busy implementing HyTime-based or
supporting technology....

Cheers,
