------- Comment #2 from cmsmcq@w3.org  2007-02-28 23:21 -------
The Working Group discussed this issue on 5 January 2007.  The sense of
the group was that the suggestion made is a good one, and wording like
"the same value" or "a {value} identical to" is preferable to
"the same string as".

The specific clauses in question have, however, been deleted both from
the normative text of the spec (as mentioned in comment #1) and from
appendix H (which now simply refers to published algorithms).  So
there appears to be no place in the spec to make the change.  

(It should be recorded that the text shown as deleted from 1.0 in
the 1.0 diffed version of the spec has fluctuated a bit, as the 
diff handling in the editorial production system has been revised.
So the diff no longer shows the wording "{value} identical to" as
deleted, but "same string as".  Contrary to some suggestions, the
apparent discrepancies did not reflect trouble in the configuration
files of the editorial production system, just corrections to the
stylesheets.)

Since the problem is no longer present, I'm going to mark this issue
as RESOLVED / FIXED, even though the fix proposed was not actually
applied.  It would be more accurate to say RESOLVED / OVERTAKEN BY 
EVENTS, were that a possibility.

Sandy, as the originator of the issue, you may change the status to
CLOSED to mark your acceptance of this disposition, or to RESOPENED
to register protest.
