It's remarkable that it's taken so long. If it appears that >XLink 1.1 will go to REC before that time, I'll add a caveat. Assuming this is meant to formally address the issue, I don't think this is acceptable, draft-murata-kohn-lilley-xml-01.txt expired about two weeks ago and it clearly noted that If [XPointerFramework] and [XPointerElement] are inappropriate for some XML-based media type, it SHOULD NOT follow the naming convention '+xml'. which means it is possible that for some "XML resources" the "format of the fragment identifier" is not specified by XPointer. In fact, XPointer only defines a framework, for e.g. image/svg+xml the concrete format of fragment identifiers is specified in the SVG specifications. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
