I think there was a link posted to the mailing list about 4 months ago to a J-Phone site that had the MML spec in English. Anybody remember it?
Sorry I have lost the mail... It's probably in the archives, eh?

PAUL's ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
I'm going try to tackle some of those questions....
(Go back to Nick May's post... I agree with him now 100%).
I was about to just reword what he said once again. So
I'm deleting my 10 paragraph post before I waste everyone's time
and summing it up.
Finally "SUCCESSFUL" for a language is highly dependent on
the service provider that is providing service for that language
and the factors that determine their successfulness.
JSky HTML and imode cHTML basically rock together.
MML, HDML and WAP are evil minions from hell which can be used
but not as easily as the other 3.
(The above 2 sentences are personal opionions based on limited exposure
to MML, HDML and WAP... I reserve the right to change my opinion at any time).
