New open issues

Issue #294, “parse tree” is not defined in the specification

See invisiblexml/ixml#294

Steven - a certain level of understanding in the reader - parse tree sufficiently well understood

Bethan: not necessarily

Steven: no complaints from implementors

Bethan: depends on who we think the audience for the spec is. - All users?

<norm> This implementor found parse tree confusing, that's why he opened the issue.

Quite some discussion on the notion of a parse tree/ forest and the presence of several trees.

Very unclear about the presence of ambiguity with implementations and the spec.

Steven: I'll delete the word tree....

John: suggest delay until Perspectives on serialization

See invisibleXML/ixml#296
