Group participants do not expect to provide two interoperable
implementations of this module, <em>using the same

have to be sent to the public mailing list <a href='mailto:www-dom@w3.org'>www-dom@w3.org</a> (public <a href='http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-dom/'>archive</a>). Other W3C Working Groups
may continue the work and provide implementations of this
document.
</p><p>
Individuals or organizations are also invited to send a message
to the public mailing list if they intend to produce an
implementation of this module.
