>The RSS profile is a good example where there is no "subset" at all,
only an "interpretation" of the spec.
Um... not sure which RSS profile you're talking about. In any event, I
think this is really just a difference of interpretation of the term
"subset."
>To create a subset, some of the optional and potentially required
elements of the CAP spec would have to be dropped in the profile.
All profile-compliant messages are valid CAP, but not all valid CAP is
profile-compliant. In that sense the profile defines a subset of the
universe of possible CAP messages. However, "interpretation" is also
within the working definition. Not sure what the practical issue is
here.
