Hello Matt, council & rest of standards community

Thanks for your comments.

Ok. If there are no further objections, could the council approve this XEP as 
experimental?

I thought it would be instructive to use common or known examples. It would 
fall under "fair use" in copyright law. (It is also sufficiently changed to not 
be a literal copy.) It's also clearly attributed, with reference to originator.

To make sure however, I'll send a question to W3school to get their approval. 
If not provided, I'll change the examples.

Would it be OK with the council with such examples, if w3school gives a written 
approval? 

Regarding non-IBB chunked model: I believe it would be a big performance loss 
if IBB would have to be used on relatively short chunked responses. However, I 
have no problem in seeing the value of using IBB in the streaming case, where 
data streams are indefinite.

Would the Council approve the XEP to experimental if I changed the streaming 
part, but left the other chunked mode as is?

Sincerely,
Peter Waher
