XML 1.0 is now a W3C Proposed Recommendation: http://www.w3.org/TR/PR-xml The announcement was formally made at the SGML/XML '97 Conference in Washington, D.C. on Monday, December 8, 1997. This is the same conference at which the first Working Draft of the XML specification was released in November, 1996. W3C member organizations now have about six weeks to vote on the PR. Organizations may vote yes; yes, with comments; no, unless specified deficiencies are corrected; or no, this Proposed Recommendation should be abandoned. During this voting period, the XML Working Group expects to resolve minor technical issues and communicate its results to the W3C Director. After this time, the Director will announce the disposition of the document; it may become a W3C Recommendation (possibly with minor changes), revert to Working Draft status, or may be dropped as a W3C work item. While the disposition of the Proposed Recommendation is entirely at the discretion of the Director, the XML Working Group considers its work on XML 1.0 to be complete and does not expect to be making substantive changes to the proposal as it now stands. There have been a number of requests for enhancement to the specification that will be considered for XML 1.1, but at this time the WG is strongly inclined to delay work on XML 1.1 until some experience has been gained with implementations of XML 1.0. In the meantime, the WG will continue its work on XLL, the part of the XML family of specifications that deals with linking and addressing.
