I don't think I said that. I use "the Infoset" to mean the meta-specification called "XML Information Set", and "an infoset" to mean what the Infoset says can result from parsing a well-formed namespace-compliant XML document. As the Infoset says, infosets can be created in other ways than by parsing; and as it does not say, they can contain information items and properties not mentioned in the Infoset (but this is implied by the absence of exclusion clauses). -- First known example of political correctness: John Cowan "After Nurhachi had united all the other http://www.reutershealth.com Jurchen tribes under the leadership of the http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Manchus, his successor Abahai (1592-1643) jcowan@r... issued an order that the name Jurchen should --S. Robert Ramsey, be banned, and from then on, they were all _The Languages of China_ to be called Manchus."
