Hi Mikkel
Yes, well done. Firm, clear, without being strident.

Hi all,
Took a little longer than expected due to other commitments, but I've
created an issue here:

Please comment as you see fit.

4. I didn't like the connection to Java either, I see no need for that

not work with Java have direct guidance.
Right, I thought it was odd to read "the GEDCOM X data model is
defined in Java" at http://www.gedcomx.org/Code.html
Likewise, http://www.gedcomx.org/Community.html says "The GEDCOM X
schemas and interfaces are defined in Java."
Thank you, everyone, for the great discussion on GEDCOM X. It seems
like something to keep an eye on.
I think I saw one of the devs (possibly Ryan Heaton @stoicflame)
comment on an issue at some point that they were moving away from defining
it in terms of Java and rather to have a language-agnostic spec with a
reference implementation in Java. I can't find it just now, but in any
case, I should think that would be the correct way of dealing with it. And
if I'm not misremembering, that should be put on their site in big fat
letters.
Perhaps I'll open a ticket next year ;) if I don't find where they said
it.
Yes, open a ticket, politely but firmly reminding them that a
Java-centric view of the world is not the only possible view...
Happy New Year!
And here's hoping this year is even more productive that the last, which
for me at least, was very productive :-).
