Whereas:
1.  The Daarmstadt conference is upon us
2.  Mark Pesce will be giving a VRML keynote at developer day
3.  Various companies are starting to spew out browser technology and tools
to ship in May
I say it's time we wrapped up open issues for version 1.0.  Mark, Gavin Bell
and I got together last week to identify those open issues, and I have been
duly deputized to bring them to closure.  We have modest proposals for
solutions to some of the open issues; others still seem a little cloudy.
Over the next few days I will be making postings on this subject.  Look for
the message header "SPEC."
Here's what we have identified:
        1) Text
        2) MIME
        3) Compression
        4) Extensibility
We'd like to have all the feedback in the next week.  Gavin and I want to
post the FINAL version 1.0 spec by the end of April.  Timing seems good,
given the commercial announcements being made.
