According to the XML spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-xml-19980210#charsets) use of single quotes for attributes is fine. [10] AttValue ::= '"' ([^<&"] | Reference)* '"' | "'" ([^<&'] | Reference)* "'" Other the other hand, the lowercased dav: sounds like a bug, since namespace identifiers are case sensitive. There is no default namespace without declaring one. Again, all of these rules pretty much come from XML itself.
