And yet still, there are NO assumptions/rules whatsoever that a namespace URI needs to resolve to an actual internet resource/webpage/Schema/etc... As far as the website is concerned however, this is somehow common practice in xml.apache.org-land: consider http://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/index.html vs http://xml.apache.org/xerces2-j/index.html, or even worse http://xml.apache.org/soap/index.html vs http://xml.apache.org/axis/index.html (which is a tad more politics, but anyhow). I don't think we should alienate the existing (and loyal) cocoon1 user base, also.
