    Thanks for your response, Don.
     
    W3C process may require that we split CSS Print as currently defined
    into two separate specifications. (It currently looks a bit as if two
    profiles have been smushed into one. ;-)
     
    If this occurs, I may not have the bandwidth to pursue advancing both
    specifications. We can revisit the issue as necessary. For now, I will
    preserve both levels within the CSS Print document.
     
    Best wishes,
     
    Melinda

            Melinda, et al:
            
            We are opposed to removing the "base level" from the CSS Print
    Profile. We believe retaining the base level set of functions is
    necessary for the ultra-low end products.

            Subject: XP> [CSS Print]

            The CSS Print specification currently defines two levels of
    support: a 'base' level, and an 'enhanced' level.
              
            So far as I know, only the enhanced level of support has been
    deployed in the market. I'm wondering if there is any point in keeping
    the definition of the base level. That is, it will be extra work and I
    question the justification.
              
            Does anyone feel it is important to maintain the base level of
    functionality in future versions of the CSS Print specification? If
    not, I plan to remove it in an upcoming release.
              
            Please raise any objections or express support by responding
    here or on www-style@w3.org <mailto:www-style@w3.org> by September 23.
              
            Best wishes,
              
            Melinda
