For me the compelling case is xml-stylesheet, which is a needed hook if MicroXML documents that *don't* look like HTML are ever to be delivered to browsers. I'm willing to leave this out of the data model and just say it's a decoration used to fit MicroXML into the XML world. For the same reason, allowing it only in the prolog is fine with me. There is also the forthcoming xml-model PI, syntactically like xml-stylesheet, which will finally allow a document to point to one or more schemas (of any type). This latter is being driven by ISO rather than W3C, so it's still in progress; there is a W3C Note documenting it at http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/NOTE-xml-model-20110811 which will be updated when the ISO work is complete. Again, this is more of an XML compatibility decoration (as "<DOCTYPE html>" is an HTML compatibility declaration) than something a MicroXML application would interpret. -- John Cowan http://ccil.org/~cowan cowan@ccil.org In might the Feanorians / that swore the unforgotten oath brought war into Arvernien / with burning and with broken troth. and Elwing from her fastness dim / then cast her in the waters wide, but like a mew was swiftly borne, / uplifted o'er the roaring tide. --the Earendillinwe
