Hi all,
Just an erroneous mis-conception I keep seeing thrown around and do not think it does our team justice to fall under:
[snip...]
Well, presently the SC manifest is embedded into the AI manifest. Although they both contain system configuration information, they are of two different incompatible formats. It makes some sense to send them with one HTTP GET to reduce the number of network transactions - I just think it's simpler to merge them in a standard format like MIME, then separate them on the client.

There is no incompatibility between XML and XML! It doesn't mater if it is XSD, RelaxNG, DTD or not even schema based -- they are all compatible and can be in one continuous, pure XML document.

The current stupidity in the AI manifest design of commenting the SC manifest goes back to my ignorance three years ago -- there's no technical reason for it and you can see the code to fix it in the webrev for bug 16045.

                                                                Thank you,
                                                                Clay
