Hence a top-down approach.  Those at the top will need to be the first to use
the new software.  Segments submitted as SLF remain subject to SLF's
limitations, but those submitted as XML won't.  As the XML software spreads
among the *Cs, more of the XML nodelist will be XML native.  SLF nodes will not
notice any difference, except perhaps that simple errors in listings will be
auto-corrected by the translation process from SLF -> XML -> SLF.
