One more Ducktype change before 1.0. I decided to automatically bind the its namespace prefix to the ITS namespace URI. In XML, the xml prefix is automatically bound, and we followed that in Ducktype. You would use the xml prefix for e.g. the xml:space attribute. I believe ITS attributes, especially its:translate, are every bit as important and cross-format as xml:space, and if XML were designed today, we'd give ITS the same preferential treatment as xml:space. I also want to make it as easy as possible for people to use ITS. http://projectmallard.org/ducktype/1.0/duck_directive#namespace This almost certainly has no adverse effects on any existing documents, unless you're binding the its prefix to something else. If you're already using ITS, you can drop the @namespace directive for it, but you don't have to. -- Shaun
