Hi, all. I've been letting JEP 0038 languish due to me not having enough time or energy for it.

I've finally cleaned up the pages for it at my wiki, and would like to get some final feedback on it before I try to make it Final Call on the standards jig.

http://www.theoretic.com/IconStyles/Home

It is currently almost unchanged from the current JEP on the jabber.org website. I am just looking for people's opinions on a few issues:

* Should <graphic/>, <sound/> and <format/> be merged into a single <object/> tag? I really no longer care one way or the other, I just want some people to express their views one way or the other so I can feel good by going with public concensus.

* Should the graphic and sound files, plus the CSS data go in the elements as their value, or as the value of an attribute in the element, as they are now? Basically, they are currently <graphic file=man.png/>, but should it be changed to <graphic>man.png</graphic>. MIME type info would remain where it is, as an attribute. I'm thinking this is more how XML should be structured, IMO, and it represents how I'm beginning to change my other XML works.

* Should the graphic and sound files be allowed to be in subdirectories, and referenced that way in the icondef.xml file? If it takes extra code to fetch files in subdirectories, then I'd say no.

Basically, it's majority rules here, so please comment!
