I posted five use cases that I think cover a fair range of virtual world 
interoperability. I've gotten several nice replies in the mail, but on 
the list they seem to have soared like a lead balloon, as opposed to all 
talk about XML vs binary vs IP property rights. Surely, agreeing on 
requirements (such as use cases) is actually more important than 
discussing implementation details that we don't even know will apply yet?

Any opinions, for or against, regarding these use cases? Silent assent?
