Some time - let's say three years - after the W3C consecration of Namespaces V2, new implementors on the block might choose not to support V1 any more, in alignment with what might then be considered best practice, i.e. the avoidance of V1. But of course, every single factor in this statement including the NIOTB is speculative. > The objective now, I think, is to make life easier for content > authors. Or am I mistaken? Probably not; I'd find that difficult to conceive. On the other hand, you also said that the current mechanism causes a lot of complexity in the data model, which I am sure does affect implementation more than use. http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200907/msg00104.html But if making life easier for content authors resulted in less complex implementations, who would complain? -- Michael Ludwig
