Comments on XML Namespaces 1.1 CR

Hello,

     I have a few comments on the Namespaces in XML 1.1 Candidate 
Recommendation.[1]

Editorial:
----------

- In the third paragraph of Section 1 [2], "should have have names" should 
read "should have names".

- In the second paragraphs of each of Sections 6.1 [3] and 6.2 [4], 
"applies to to all" should read "applies to all"

Technical:
----------

- The description of how to convert an IRI reference to a URI reference in 
Section 9 [5] differs from Section 3.1 of the IRI draft [6] in that it 
doesn't mention that if the document encoding is not a Unicode encoding, 
the IRI has to be converted to "a sequence of characters from the UCS 
normalized according to NFC [Normalization Form C]."  It also fails to 
mention the recommendation of the IRI draft that lower case letters be 
used for the %HH escaping.

Thanks,

Henry
