> XML 1.1 > W3C Working Draft 13 December 2001 > > http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11/ > It seems a shame not to take the opportunity to bring XML Namespaces into the main XML spec. Not that I have ever been a fan of namespaces, but since all the other important specs like InfoSet and XPath now work only with namespace-conformant documents, it seems rather pointless to introduce an XML 1.1 that not only continues to allow documents that aren't namespace conformant, but even (as far as I can see) retains the timid "please don't misuse the colon" wording of XML 1.0 second edition. Will any vendor really want to produce an XML 1.1 parser that handles non-namespace-conformant documents, and if so, why? Mike Kay
