Then why do we need a requirements document for Namespaces 1.1 per se? Is there a good argument why Namespaces-1.1 *shouldn't* be rolled into the XML-1.1 req/draft? So what if XML-1.1 is a few pages larger; the post-hoc addition of Namespaces to XML has caused a lot of problems over the years. Removing an external requirement/dependency should be a *good* thing here. Z.
