Thanks Roland! Thought you were going to dissapear and get some real work done!
Andy, is there any reason in your mind why we should NOT allow xHTML in the values of the simple schema. My first reaction is that it opens the door sufficiently to allow things like MathML but does not push it wide open into unrestricted land.
