Intro message stale

The intro message could confuse new subscribers. It says

> The XML spec is still being actively developed and the latest draft is
> at http://www.textuality.com/sgml-erb/WD-xml.html

Which is untrue, since following that link takes you to a Working Draft
dated 30-Jun-97 wheras the actual latest spec is the W3C Recomendation
dated 10-February-1998 

It also points you to an old draft of Xlink, dated June-30-97.
The current latest spec is twofld, the XLink and XPointer WDs, both
dated 3-March-1998 

I know, everyone on this list already knew that. People just joining
however might be confused.
