I have a long overdue action for providing XML name encoding examples of
the algorithm described in [1]. Here they are:

	Hello world		->	Hello_x0020_world
	Hello_xorld		->	Hello_x005F_xorld
	Helloworld_		->	Helloworld_

	x			->	x
	xml			->	_xFFFF_xml
	-xml			->	_x002D_xml
	x-ml			->	x-ml

Unless anybody objects (or finds bugs) I will put them into the same
appendix as the encoding rules themselves [1]. I apologize for the delay
in getting this done.
