XML WG Reorganization questions

Between XML.com's report (http://www.xml.com/xml/pub/98/10/xmlgroups.html)
and the XML Activity statement at the W3C
(http://www.w3.org/XML/Activity.html) I feel like I have a decent grasp of
where the W3C is headed with XML - better, at least, than I've had in a while.

Two big questions, however:

1) I don't see where namespaces are listed as any of these groups' work,
though the activity statement still mentions them as W3C work.

2) Is the Fragment Working Group the descendant of XPointer, or something
else? XPointer started out with XLink, but seems to be migrating further
and further away from its origins.

Looks good!
