The XML Core WG requests transition of XML Base (Second Edition) available at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/09/xmlbase-2e/ to a Proposed Edited Recommendation (PER). The URL cited above is for the most recent Member-only version of the specification as of 8 December 2006, dated to reflect the expected publication date of 20 December 2006 and designed to be published by having the directory moved over to http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xmlbase-20061220/ in its entirety. This version still requires work on the SOTD section; an updated version will be ready before the expected PER telcon on or about December 14th. The SOTD shown at the bottom of this Transition Request email is close to what we expect for a final SOTD. The XML Base First Edition was published on 27 June 2001 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlbase-20010627/ as a Recommendation. All changes to the document are recorded in the XML Base Errata document at http://www.w3.org/2001/06/xmlbase-errata . A diff-marked review copy of this PER is available at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/09/xmlbase-2e/Overview-review.html Differences in this Edition are also highlighted in Appendix D of this PER document. The WG's decision to request publication as a PER was taken during a WG telcon on 2006 December 6 whose minutes may be found at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006Dec/0006 SCHEDULE Depending on the scheduling of the PER call, we propose a publication date of 20 December 2006. We propose that the PER period lasts from the date of publication until 31 January 2007. PROPOSED CR TITLE, ABSTRACT AND STATUS SECTIONS Abstract This document describes a facility, similar to that of HTML BASE, for defining base URIs for parts of XML documents. Status of this Document 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=xmlbase. This document is a Proposed Edited Recommendation of the W3C. This second edition is not a new version of XML Base. As a convenience to readers, it incorporates the changes dictated by the accumulated errata (available at http://www.w3.org/2001/06/xmlbase-errata) to the First Edition of XML Base, dated 27 June 2001. W3C Advisory Committee Members are invited to send formal review comments to the W3C Team until 31 January 2007. Advisory Committee Representatives should consult their WBS questionnaires. The public is invited to send comments on this document to www-xml-linking-comments@w3.org; public archives are available. 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.
