Here is my 2nd draft PER requestion for Namespaces in XML 1.0 2nd Ed. ACTIONS/QUESTIONS to Henry and Richard below. One missing bit is the URL at which Richard will put the latest draft. Richard, I've made a suggestion below (flagged with @@@)--let me know if you end up putting it somewhere different. Also, I'll have to update the status for the final PER request. Henry (and others), there is in interesting issue here. The "short name" for NS 1.0 is REC-xml-names. Nowadays, we'd just use "xml-names" (viz. xml-names11), but since this is just a new edition, I'm assuming we must keep the original short name (as we are doing with XML 1.0). Let me know if you think otherwise. Aside from the URI for the final Rec, this also affects the URI to translations which is embedded in the Status section. Richard and Henry, we need to determine a URI for the errata document to this NS 1.0 2nd Edition. I've invented one below (marked with @@@). Let me know if you want something else, and please plan to put some skeleton document at that location. paul --------- Eventually-to: timbl@w3.org; steve@w3.org Eventually-cc: public-xml-core-wg@w3.org; webreq@w3.org; chairs@w3.org; w3t-comm@w3.org The XML Core WG requests publication of Namespaces in XML 1.0 (Second Edition) available at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2006/04/xml-names-2e/xml-names-10-2e.html @@@ as a Proposed Edited Recommendation (PER). The URL cited above is for the most recent Member-only version of the specification as of 2 June 2006 but dated 14 June 2006 in anticipation of publication then. That file is set up to be published by moving it to http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xml-names-20060614/Overview.html The Namespaces in XML 1.0 First Edition was published on 14 January 1999 at http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/ The Errata document to the First Edition is at http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-names-19990114-errata This Second Edition incorporates these errata. In addition, there are several editorial changes, including a number of terminology changes and additions intended to produce greater consistency. The non-normative appendix "The Internal Structure of XML Namespaces" has been removed. The WG's decision to request publication as a PER was taken during a WG telcon on 2006 May 31 whose minutes may be found at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xml-core-wg/2006May/0068 SCHEDULE We propose a publication date of 2006 June 14. We propose that the PER period lasts from the date of publication until 31 July 2006. PROPOSED PER TITLE, ABSTRACT AND STATUS SECTIONS Abstract XML namespaces provide a simple method for qualifying element and attribute names used in Extensible Markup Language documents by associating them with namespaces identified by URI references.
