The charter as currently drafted roughly says 'http binding now,  
other bindings later, if people want them.'  So, I collated the use  
cases from the list with that remit. I think that the browser use  
cases are complete enough that other documents could be written  
against them. But the non-browser cases clearly aren't detailed  
enough for that. dmd0/dmd1 attempts to address just the browser  
cases. dmuc2 can be developed further if people want to do that and  
should be taken further if people want to write further documents  
against them.

What do you folks on the list want to do with dmuc2?

Does it document the goals and motivations of the group?

Does it do so well enough to move forward with finding solutions that  
solve those problems?
