If I've learned something in my work with MPEG-7 and standardisation,
it's to concentrate on the underlying representation, and not necessarily
the tool to do things with.

So I say, concentrate on a good XML format for the underlying material,
and everything else will follow. In that case, I could apply some of my
work with ConTeXt to take the XML and do some serious typesetting.

cheers,
adam
