Is this an oversight in the spec? Namespace URIs do not, in general, point to anything concrete. They are just arbitrarily assigned strings that are compared character for character. I consider it a design flaw to use something that looks so much like it should be dereferenced but the idea was that people could manage their "namespace namespace" at the same time that they manage their website. If your departmental URL space is /finance then you could invent /finance namespace URIs. -- Paul Prescod - ISOGEN Consulting Engineer speaking for only himself http://itrc.uwaterloo.ca/~papresco The first three Noble Truths of Python: All that is not Python is suffering.
