Re: CORRECTION: Please review ietf-draft of SMIL media-type registration

Hi,

I noticed some inconsistencies with the SMIL namespaces in the
draft. In section 4:

All SMIL 2.0 files must also include a declaration of the SMIL 2.0
   namespace.  This should appear shortly after the string "<smil", and
   should read 'xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/PR/Language"'.

However, a different namespace in the end of section 5:

An example use of this parameter as part of a HTTP GET transaction
   would be:

        Accept: application/smil+xml;
           profile="http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/REC/HostLanguage"

Also, either of these namespaces match the one in SMIL 2.0 spec
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-smil20-20010807/smil20-profile.html):
13.3.2 SMIL 2.0 Language Conformance

5. A document must declare a default namespace for its elements with an
xmlns attribute on the smil root element with its identifier URI:
<smil xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/Language">
   ...
</smil>

You may want to check these...
