+
+Frank Mittlebach suggested that I might produce some material for
+consideration by \LaTeX-people at Dedham.  This document is the result.
+
+My involvement with \LaTeX\ 3.0 \cite{lamport-86,m+s-89} started early
+in
+1990 when I heard Chris Rowley announce that opinions were invited about
+the facilities that should be provided in the new \LaTeX.  Accordingly,
+I submitted a \lq\lq wish list'', and have since submitted various
+additional ideas.
+
+The present document is an attempt to put these wishes etc.\ together in
+one place.  It has been put together in a hurry from various sources.
+Generally the main text is based on older material than the appendices:
+you may find inconsistencies of detail that I haven't had time to
+resolve.
+(Frank only gave me two weeks notice!) I've included some extracts from
+e-mail in which people were making comments about similar topics.  (My
+\lq\lq extracting algorithm'' has been an uneasy compromise between
+thinking that I shouldn't confine the document to my own views, and
+wondering whether people would want remarks they made in one context
+reproduced in another context.  I apologise to anyone whose views I've
+omitted/included when I should have included/omitted them.) I realize
+that the result is over-long and repetitive, but I don't have time to
+think how to cut it down and re-organise it.
+
+In my case, most \lq\lq wishes'' are just particular cases of general
+wish \lq\lq that \LaTeX\ would make it easy to produce documents that
+conform to the conventions that are usual in traditional publishing'',
+since most of the end-users who tell me \lq\lq I don't like the way
+\LaTeX\ does this'' are, I think, really saying \lq\lq I'd just like
+\LaTeX\ to do things like normal publishers do them'' (either because
+they want to pass the result on to a publisher, or simply because
+traditional conventions \lq\lq look right'' to them).
+
+I've generally tried to determine \lq\lq traditional publishing
+practice'' by consulting the manuals to which a publisher's
+copy-editors, designers, and typesetting staff might refer.  I assume
+that the {\it Chicago Manual of Style} \cite{chicago-82}, Butcher's {\it
+  Copy-editing}, \cite{butcher-81}, McLean's {\it Manual of Typography}
+  \cite{mclean-80},
+Williamson's {\it Methods of Book Design} \cite{williamson-83} and
+Hart's {\it Rules} \cite{hart-83} are representative of such manuals.
+Since I assume that \LaTeX\ is, and always will be, intended for
+producing formally structured documents rather than for implementing
+\lq\lq grid-based designs'', I presume that it is unrealistic to try to
+support more than a selection of the features described in books (such
+as \cite{miles-87} and \cite{white-88}) that are aimed at the \lq\lq
+design for desktop publishing'' market.  However, the classes of
+document that are of interest to the Text Encoding Initiative
+\cite{tei-90} seem similar to the classes for which \LaTeX\ is intended,
+so I assume that the Initiative's views on structure are relevant
+(although their objectives are broader than just typesetting).
+
+I'm very aware that it's easier \lq\lq to wish'' than \lq\lq to grant
+wishes''.
