    I'm including the 4 documents that Graham Klyne pointed us to on W3C
    Composite Capabilities/Preference Profiles in the printed set of documents
    for our QUALDOCS meeting.

    (The work is still fairly rough, IMO, but there's an XML-based framework
    for capability description. CONNEG-style compositions are not provided for
    yet, but could be added either as CC/PP extensions or as generic RDF logic
    extensions. Michael Mealling is working on a proposal that will allow tags
    from the conneg registry to be embedded in URI space as URNs.)
