> Paul sent "remaining issues" email at
> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2009Nov/0088
> with the following issues:


> more restrictive location for xml-stylesheet PIs
> ------------------------------------------------
> We probably need to allow, but discourage, x-s PIs in the
> internal and external subsets.
> 
> ACTION to Henry:  Suggest some actual wording.


> constraints on pseudo-attribute values
> --------------------------------------
> Paul is concerned that the document constraints on the values
> of the pseudo-attributes (1) were not what we decided when
> discussing issues earlier and (2) are in some cases more
> restrictive than what the 1st edition requires (even by
> reference to HTML4).
> 
> Henry isn't sure about the whole processor/document dicotomy
> on constraints.  (For the record, Paul didn't expect that
> dicotomy either and thought we'd just stick to constraints
> on processors, but I think I can live with constraints on
> documents as long as we can agree on those constraints.)


> Note on same document reference from the PI
> -------------------------------------------
> The 1st Ed has a note that is no longer in the draft 2nd Ed.
> Paul wondered if we should include it, and Henry did thinks so.


> Acknowledgements
> ----------------
> Paul still hates acknowledgement sections and would like to
> see it deleted.  Simon wants it.  No one else has expressed
> an opinion, and perhaps no one else cares.
> 
> I note that the Editors are listed as Simon and Henry, but
> not James.  It has been customary to include editors of
> previous editions and add names to later editions.  I suggest
> that we put back James' name as the first entry in the list
> of editors.
> 
> Given that there are no Acknowledgements in the 1st Edition,
> I submit that the status quo for this spec is for there to
> be no Acknowledgements section.  Therefore, if no one else
> expresses an opinion, there will be no Acknowledgements.
> If we get a majority of WG members expressing a preference
> for adding an Acknowledgements section, we will do so.
