For now i would just use the actual name (or just initials) of the person who thinks that a <fixme> note is necessary. I would not worry about trying to match the value up with other things. There is no content validation happening for these attributes anyway. So i say do not worry, we can tidy it up later if we want to rely on it. --David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
