I say, "This document is an XML document" or "This document is an XML document, particularly using the XHTML vocabulary". The objective and purpose of the vocabulary is to describe documents. This is constant even if the name of the vocabulary was not HTML. We markup a title with <title/> just because it is a "title". I think we should markup a document with <document/> just because it is a "document" in terms of the meanings of the content. -- Ai (ja-JP;q=9, en-US;q=6) The Eller College of Management, The University of Arizona
