Well, Ernst did a fine job, but it'd be better if he'd done those things
in XML... *runs* 

Anyway, IMHO adding a methodology on top of the purpose of the article -
showing the CMP stuff - would have been yet more to learn. I'm of the
opinion that something like that needs to show off one aspect of the
technology rather than all aspects, so MVC - while useful - would have
been yet another thing to track.

BTW, Ernst *is* in the process of writing a DTD for the primers. :)
