Here a fairly scathing article on the drawbacks of XML1.1, starting out with some rules:

1.      Don't use it.

2.      (For experts only) If you speak Mongolian, Yi, Cambodian, Amharic, Dhivehi, Burmese, or a very few other languages and you want to write your markup (not your text but your markup) in these languages, you can set the version attribute of the XML declaration to 1.1. Otherwise, refer to rule 1.
