Regarding DTDs and processing instructions, please see my earlier mails where I discussed their drawbacks as a means to indicate language distinctions in the context of multi-namespace documents and fragment validation. Please also remember that this thread has been a lengthy one(!), and if in every mail I do not address in detail every argument that has been made in favor of or against some viewpoint, it is not necessarily that I am unaware of the argument, or choose to ignore it, but rather that I may have summarized it or addressed it elsewheres, or judged it sufficiently addressed by others. Regarding David Brownell's statement, "It's my understanding that the essence of the problem is in the assertion you made there, and throughout your post: that vocabulary and syntax and namespace are one one thing, rather than at least two (vocabulary/namespace, and separately syntax as today captured in DTD)"; I do not in fact make this assertion. What I said was "There is a vocabulary and syntax called 'Strict'. There is another called 'Transitional'..." I later stated that the solution proposed by the XHTML WG was to distinguish these by use of namespaces. I work to make my wording exact. Please read my mails as though I actually said what I meant. xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers. To post, mailto:xml-dev@i...
