Sorry I wasn't more clear about this: Prior to acknowledgment, the Submitter(s) MUST NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, refer to a document as "submitted to the World Wide Web Consortium" or "under consideration by W3C" or any similar phrase either in public or Member communication. The Submitter(s) MUST NOT imply in public or Member communication that W3C is working (with the Submitter(s)) on the material in the Member Submission. The Submitter(s) MAY publish the documents in the Member Submission prior to acknowledgment (without reference to the Submission request). After acknowledgment, the Submitter(s) MUST NOT, under any circumstances, imply W3C investment in the Member Submission until, and unless, the material has been adopted as part of a W3C Activity. -- W3C Process Document [2] Now, obviously it's already a matter of public record that W3C is working in this area, and the situations this text is intended to prevent are unlikely to arise in this community (where no salesman is trying to convince a customer to buy a product based on its association with W3C), but we should still respect it, and just talk about this proposal in terms of its DAML publication path until the the process is complete. Also, note that if acknowledged it becomes "a Submission", NOT "a Note". The term Note has been deprecated, and only survives in the form of a "Working Group Note", which a chartered Working Group can choose to publish. -- sandro [1] http://www.w3.org/1999/10/nsuri [2] http://www.w3.org/2003/06/Process-20030618/submission.html#Submission
