Hi Joerg, > I missed: > 5. Outlaw declaring namespaces in DTDs as fixed attribute values. Yep -- we get that kind of thing happening because namespaces are declared using attributes. If you separate out namespace declarations for *content* (which you would do with attributes) from namespace declarations for *markup* (which you wouldn't), then it stops being an issue. The namespace-declarations-for-content could be defaulted if that's something that's appropriate for the application (for example, there's a default default-function-namespace in XQuery). Since namespace-declarations-for-markup *wouldn't* be declared through attributes, there'd be no way of defaulting them within the DTD/schema, so the problems with doing that wouldn't arise.
