Technically, these are two separate issues. I'm cool with it either way but I just want to make note about what we really *need* to do vs. what we're making a concious choice to do. In order to use XHTML2 with views (or for the existing skins for that matter) we need a transform (e.g. document2html) and a mod to the *.page pipeline that calls that transform instead of the existing **body-*.html pipe (w/ some other small tweaks here and there). This new stylesheet and the new pipe would still be re-used even in our new concept of views -- so it wouldn't be throw-away as far as I can tell. I'm still catching up on Thorsten's long email the other day about views, dispatcher, etc so I'm not sure what the implication is quite yet, but he's now thinking java for some and jxtemplates for the structurer. So, views is also somewhat of a moving target. That being the case, it's probably important that we explicitly recognize that this will be the location for future view development from now on vs. view/viewHelper. If we *want* to take it all on now, that's fine, I just didn't "get" that for some reason. --tim
