I thought that WWWJ was no more. The Markup Technologies journal
is an excellent place to publish. I am on the editorial board.

Expected and encouraged. I expect the '99 conference to contain
a lot of XML-related material. Since so much important XML work
happens on this list, I am encouraging all participants to

I can't speak on behalf of W3C. I do know that the staff reviews
all submissions. However, my examiniation of staff comments on
previous submissions would not lead me to equate their review
with a proper peer review process.
