>And if there is a requirement from the Japanese that every new XML
language is in an XML Namespace, for management or SOAP enveloping

reasons that i) publishers need entity references and hence DTDs, and ii)
that publishing DTDs tend to be old and evolving rather than new
vocabularies. So I am loath to use them except where modularity is
needed.)

I will raise this at the WG1 meeting, and seriously oppose it for reasons
