It seems the group in favor of pre 09 is in favor of it because the
solution integrates with YLbis, i.e., _one_ way to represent schema
information.

I assume the group in favor of pre 09 finds it difficult to
'compromise' on something that does not provide the benefit of
integrating with YLbis.

To investigate the possibility of a compromise, we need to understand
what both groups find unacceptable and where there is room for finding
common grounds.

- For the pre 09 'camp', it seems integration with YLbis is the key
  technical requirement that is driving them.

What is the key technical critical issue for the other camp?
