Hello group,
over in #atom on irc.freenode.net, I was just explaining to John
Clark that xml:id is not forbidden by the spec, even though it’s
not explicitly allowed. As spec language was examined, we
discovered the following oddity in the RNC:
undefinedAttribute =
attribute * - (xml:base | xml:lang | local:*) { text }
If I’m reading that right, the RNC schema currently validates
documents with made-up attributes in the Atom namespace. Am I?
And if so, shouldn’t that declaration rather read as follows?
undefinedAttribute =
attribute * - (xml:base | xml:lang | atom:* | local:*) { text }
(Oh, and btw – the channel has plenty of room for more people!)
Regards,
