Hi Richard,

Rather than transforming across the actual formats, there seems to be  
a interest in defining a model and then describe how to render onto  
various data formats. So, rendering-down, rather then transforming- 
across. (?)

The data formats discussion is a tricky one to resolve, as there's  
things to like in each of JSON, ATOM and key-value. That said, the  
"compliant, but non-interoperable implementations through supporting  
multiple representations" is a strong argument for a single format.  
Whatever that may be ...

regards
Roger
