6553: XML 1.0 and 1.1 references are inconsistent
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.b6553.html
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-2/datatypes.b6553.html

To WG 12 April 2009.

6553 XML 1.0 and 1.1 references are inconsistent

Summary: WG decided to: (1) Use undated links, not dated links,
to W3C specs.  (2) Give document status and date ("W3C Working
Draft, 35 March 2013").  (3) Add text to normative references to
W3C specs saying "The edition cited is the one current at the
date of publication of this specification. Implementations may
follow the edition cited and/or any later edition(s); it is
implementation-defined which."

Note: Proposal does NOT make the sentence in (3) a blanket
statement but added to individual references; should be a case by
case decision.  Did NOT add it to non-normative references.  Did
NOT apply decision to submissions (which are not W3C documents.
Did NOT fix other problems in the references.

Some discussion in Bugzilla; amendments needed.

MSM's recommendation:  quick.

   - Mark various undated links as additions, as specified in
     comment 7.

   - Correct the URI for XPointer as specified in comment 8

(see ammendment "and/or"
