Well, I'm sure the TC will look forward to hearing about it.  As you  
know,  my personal concerns are:

1) That we not complicate CAP implementation for thin devices any  
more than absolutely necessary; and,

2) That we not spawn inconsistent representations of target areas  
that could hamper global interoperability.

And, of course, I'm still not sure we've established that this  
actually is a significant problem... and I say that will all due  
respect to those several advocates who seem so passionate about it.

Certainly we've identified a number of precedents for standardizing  
on a single CRS, and I'm still not clear on exactly why that can't  
continue to work for us, too.
