Common XML defines a very small core, but allows developers to move beyond that core if needed. Additional features from XML 1.0 and Namespaces are still available. This specification includes descriptions of the impact of features beyond the core on interoperability. ------------------------------------- Comments are welcome, either to the editor (me) at simonstl@s..., or to the SML-DEV mailing list: http://www.egroups.com/group/sml-dev/info.html We're hoping to close review by September 1 and move toward a final release. If Rick liked it, I'd like to think we're doing something right. This document is the product of a mailing list, not a formal organization, so our publishing process is still in development, of course!
