So if we're testing the waters of SRU extensions I think what is
lacking here is a process more than any technical capability. I'm
thinking something like the following could work:
1. someone suggests the extension on sru-implementors
2. someone drafts the proposed extension and make it available on the web
3. more discussion on sru-implementors about draft
4. someone edits draft appropriately
5. a group votes (not sure who)
6. publish draft (or not)
Does something like this already exist? Or is it just:
1. try to convince someone who controls the web pages
2. publish
I only bring this up because I feel like I really need 2 to understand
the current discussion.
