Thanks for that. I'll pass that on to the corporates (& uni) I'm
consulting to here when the thing comes to Wellington... oops, too late.

Sounds like you handled your issues appropriately. I'd have been v.
noisy ;-)

What were they selling?
If the namespace was out of date, I guess it wasn't the XML component.

As an aside tho, I wll say that I'm happy with the way MS is pushing the
whole XML thing. It's given the industry a LOT of push and interest, and
bodes well for the embracing of open-standards by MS.
Niggles & unfortunate 'mistakes' (like the namespace) aside, their role
has actually been pretty positive.
