There are already several schemes out there.

Would writing a WG Note just add yet another escaping scheme?

The ballot has been approved.  There were four comments which
need to be addressed which means there will probably be another
ISO vote.

ACTION to Jirka:  Send the comments to the XML Core WG list
(or to w3c-archive@w3.org and post the URL).

Henry asks what it should mean if the document has both a
doctype declaration and an xml-model that points to a DTD.

Jirka claims that is outside the scope of the xml-model spec.

The spec already says:

 This specification provides a way to associate multiple schemas
 with a given XML document. Furthermore, there exist other ways
 certain schemas can be associated with a given XML document.
 Regardless of the association method, this specification does
 not prescribe the processing order when multiple schemas are
 associated with a given XML document.

 In particular, this specification does not define the interaction
 of xml-model processing instructions with xsi:schemaLocation and
 xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes which provide hints for
 locating schema in W3C XML Schema. Applications supporting both
 xml-model processing instructions and xsi:schemaLocation/
 xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes may provide means for
 specifying which information takes precedence.

John says we might add: 

 The presence of an xml-model PI referencing to a dtd does not 
 affect the validity of the document which contains it.

ACTION to Paul:  Prepare an updated draft of the WG Note to 
reflect the comments (after we have seen all the comments).
