If memory serves me well (which is not often), I believe I heard Norm
refer to that project, as if to lament the fact that it has stalled. I
remember having the sense that it was one of his subprojects - and
that maybe (I may be confusing this with something else...) that he
was waiting for more and better cooperation between other standards
orgs (ISO, IETF, etc.) before they could get any further. But I could
have that latter part wrong.
The best advice I can give you is to ask him directly, Im sure he'll
know all about XMLCharent and any related work. However, I do know
that he's been vacationing in St. Thomas for the last week, so you may
want to give him some time to catch up before inquiring, that is, if you
expect a reasonably tmiely & complete answer.
Hope that helps...
Mark
