Interesting. Is the app schema team going to work over xlink support anytime soon?

On one side I think we should call a PSC vote, on the other side, a PSC vote won't materialize resources by magic: if there is no one with the ability to work on this, it won't be done, it's as simple as that. (no?) Soo... opinions? Maybe we should start a separate thread to discuss this.
