If you are writign anything into the standard which has need been tried and tested in muptiple systems you're asking for truoble. This has been the policy of the W3C since they tried to standardise a couple of things (e.g. OWL) that did not have extensive practical implementations and ran into problems. It was only acceptable at all in OWL because it is possible to prove mathematically that a particular feature will be computable and consistent, we dont have that luxury. Back on topic: lets just stick with (one kind of) timestamped event ramp. We know that works, and theres nothing particularly wrong with it. - Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
