Revolution and the Web, feedback wanted, Part 2 of 3

[Viktoras Didziulis]

Exactly! 
 
Once stacks are described in XML and CSS, the translation of stack layouts
into a few other XML formats becomes nearly a trivial task. This could be
both XHTML+CSS and SVG+CSS. Of course on the translated side, use of an
additional library of primitives would be necessary. However the most
complicated part would be translation of scripts...

Hiya, 
 
I still think we should piggy back on the XML description of the stacks 
and inject the missing pieces there, I shouldn't think it's too far to 
XHTML from there. 
The injected pieces would be those as mentioned in 'Part 3'. 
 
Cheers, 
 
Luis.
