Re: [xtm-wg] A challenge on "the graph"

I'm not suggesting that we should throw it away. I think that model
should inform most of the PM work, but I don't think the PM should end
up looking the same way.

What those are remains a mystery, though. :-)

The prose is fixable, I think.

It's the way everything is being reduced to too few concepts that are
then being stretched back to cover the original concepts. I find it
far too awkward, and like Luis Martinez's model far better. (In fact,
his model has much more in common with my infoset proposal than with
the PM as currently set forth.)
