> Requirements: > > [a] All string-equal namespace URI must be namespace-equal. well, there's no agreement about this. Two relative URI references in two different documents are argued to point to different namespaces because the two different documents have different base. > [b] All absolutized-equal namespace URI must be namespace-equal. You should define 'absolutized-equal', since it isn't clearly defined. > [c] If namespace compliance is redefined, then current documents > must remain in compliance and interpretable as they are now. This raises the value of "retaining compliance" above the value of "insuring interoperability". This also is not agreed. > Solutions: Until there's agreement on the requirements, it's hard to discuss solutions.
