In response to your email to the XML 1.1 CR recorded at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-blueberry-comments/2002Oct/0004.html
the XML Core WG generated, discussed, and resolved the follow issue:

Issue Lewis-01:
inconsistency of S production and treatment of line endings

Summary resolution: rejected

Response
--------
While it is true that there are some inconsistencies, they are mostly due
to having #xD in the S production in XML 1.0. While this may be considered
sub-optimal, we didn't want to change this part of XML 1.0. The situation
in XML 1.1 isn't problematic for processors, since the added whitespace characters
are converted to x#A upon input. Therefore, we felt it best not to make any
changes to XML 1.1 in response to this comment.
========

Please let us know whether you accept our resolution of our comment,
or wish to have an objection formally recorded.  If we do not hear
from you within 10 days we will assume that you accept our response
(though we would prefer to hear from you in any case if practical).

Thank you for your interest in the XML 1.1.

Paul Grosso
