Simon and I have agreed that we should try the following -- remove the
bit about applications from the second bullet in the Conformance
section and add a new bullet:
*Applications*
An xml-stylesheet processor may be part of a larger XML
application, or may function independently. In either case,
[Definition: an *application* is the consumer of the
pseudo-attribute analysis defined in this specification.]
A detailed specification of how applications exploit the
information contained in xml-stylesheet processing instructions
is out of scope for this document, as this may reasonably vary
from application to application. Accordingly this
specification places no conformance requirements on
applications.
It is however expected that specifications governing the use of
stylesheet languages will reference _this_ specification in
describing how applications may identify stylesheets for
use. Such specifications are expected to specify
interpretations for the values (or absense of value) of those
pseudo-attributes which they make use of, doing so in a way
that is as consistent as possible with those pseudo-attribute's
descriptions in _4 The xml-stylesheet processing instruction_,
insofar as this makes sense for the application in question.
