We have voted to have 2.x be the place to support the OASIS specs so it seems to me if we're not sure how to do this yet then OASIS should take priority so i'd be happy if for now we change to support OASIS and look at adding backward compatibility at some point in the future. As to the when to make this particular change I think now or next week seems fine, and it would be good to include that in 2.0 M1 so it starts to show that OASIS is what we're doing in 2.0. ...ant
