PROPOSED CR TITLE, ABSTRACT AND STATUS SECTIONS

Abstract

This document specifies a processing model and syntax 
for general purpose inclusion. Inclusion is accomplished 
by merging a number of XML information sets into a single 
composite infoset. Specification of the XML documents 
(infosets) to be merged and control over the merging 
process is expressed in XML-friendly syntax (elements, 
attributes, URI references).

Status of this Document

[[The text here is what I suggest should be the status,
except I don't show links, but most of this test including
the links should be inferable from the existing XInclude
status and/or the status for the XML 1.0 4th Ed draft PER--pbg]]

This section describes the status of this document at the time 
of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. 
A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this 
technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index 
at http://www.w3.org/TR/.

This document has been produced by the W3C XML Core Working 
Group as part of the XML Activity. The English version of 
this specification is the only normative version. However, 
for translations of this document, see 
http://www.w3.org/2003/03/Translations/byTechnology?technology=xinclude1
0.

This document is a Proposed Edited Recommendation of the W3C. 
This second edition is not a new version of XInclude. As a convenience 
to readers, it incorporates the changes dictated by the accumulated 
errata (available at http://www.w3.org/2004/12/xinclude-errata) 
to the First Edition of XInclude 1.0, dated 20 December 2004. 

W3C Advisory Committee Members are invited to send formal review 
comments to the W3C Team until 13 October 2006. Advisory Committee 
Representatives should consult their WBS questionnaires. The 
public is invited to send comments on this document to 
www-xml-xinclude-comments@w3.org; public archives are available. 

The errata list for this edition is available at
http://www.w3.org/2004/12/xinclude-errata.

Known implementations are documented in the XInclude Implementation 
Report. A Test Suite is maintained to help in assessing conformance 
to this specification.

Publication as a Proposed Edited Recommendation does not imply 
endorsement by the W3C Membership. This is a draft document 
and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents 
at any time. It is inappropriate to cite this document as other 
than work in progress.

This document has been produced under the 24 January 2002 CPP 
as amended by the W3C Patent Policy Transition Procedure. 
An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the 
individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) with respect 
to this specification should disclose the information in 
accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. Documentation 
of intellectual property possibly relevant to this specification 
may be found at the Working Group's public IPR disclosure page.
