I agree completely, but I get very consistent responses from various W3C folks that URIs are the magic answers to all cases that might otherwise have required registration. I'd love to see such a thing, with or without the W3C's involvement, but suspect that it's just too late at this point. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com -- http://monasticxml.org
