Do not worry about that: I just submitted a very quick patch for review,
which enables Narval to work with the cvs HEAD code of 4Suite and PyXML
and not too many kludges in the code to handle both conventions. It is now
up to the PyXML developers to decide whether it will be applied or not. 

I agree that some agreement has to be reached first. And if the agreement
is to use None, I'll change the code in Narval to match this, it's as
simple as that (and a strong 'requires' statement on the download page,
for this decision can break existing code).

Martin pointed out some very interesting parts of the various specs, in
another mail on this thread, which seem to clarify this point very much.
