Re: Facet algebra

Hi Peter,

I think you are right. I am thinking of calling it XFML+CAMEL for the 
following reasons:
a/ CAMEL is an easy name, 
b/ the two camelbacks remind me .. two facets, and
c/ I can justify CAMEL as follows:
[C]ompound term composition [A]lgebraically-[M]otivated [E]xpression
[L]anguage.

What do you think ?
