I agree with Alessandro and James here, it doesn't seem that your proposal does what you think it does. I missed an "or" in there. In +names, ü has two possible encodings: the standard UTF-8 version (C3 BC if my mental UTF-8 bitshifter is right), and as the sequence ü. Authors and software could choose to use either. > Entities have nothing to do with schemas. It's bad enough I agree. This hasn't stopped people saying that they want entities but not DTDs. >>The +names proposal is the only thing I could think of that had >>the remotest hope of giving them what they want and actually >>getting implemented. > > Getting implemented by whom? People who write XML infrastructure. -- Cheers, Tim Bray (http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/)
