/ David Powell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say: | a) Section 6.4 omits atom:source as a valid location for Metadata Extensions, | but it is allowed by the RelaxNG in 4.2.11. I believe that the RelaxNG | reflects our intent to allow extensions to be preserved in atom:source.
That seems reasonable to me. I'd be content if we decided this was a
spec bug and agreed to add 'atom:source' to the lext of Metadata
Elements in Section 6.4.
| b) Section 6.4.1 and Section 6.4.2 don't place any restrictions on what
elements
| may be used as Metadata Extensions, but the RelaxNG grammar explicitly
excludes
| elements in the Atom namespace. The Atom namespace should be reserved for
| future forwards-compatable revisions of Atom.
Given that our spec defines what the atom: elments mean and where they
can appear, it would seem bizarre to me to say that in Metadata
Extensions, any atom: element can be used for any purpose.
I conclude that the RELAX NG grammar reflects the groups intent in
these areas, but I'll change it if consensus proves me wrong. :-)
Be seeing you,
norm
