However, and not distracting from the original specific issue: MM> However, unless such significant changes are endorsed, I continue MM> to be very reluctant to register a specialized media type for MM> the RELAX NG XML syntax. I don't see how the issue of how/whether to point to a portion of an xml resource which happens to be in RNG, has *any* bearing on the issue of what media type to use when RNG is served as a stand-alone document, which is by far the typical case at the moment.

Will you convey this request to them, or do I need to convey it by a more formal mechanism?
