xml-dev - Re: Whitespace

[Jon.Bosak@eng.Sun.COM (Jon Bosak)]

It's not up to me to tell this group what to talk about, but I think
that you should be aware that the WG discussed the issue of whitespace
to the point of complete exhaustion during no less than three separate
phases of the design process, and the chances of it being formally
reconsidered in the XML 1.0 time frame are exactly zero.  A discussion
of conventions for specific classes of user agents (e.g., web
browsers) is useful, but I feel that it's my obligation to point out
to anyone mistakenly thinking that this issue might conceivably be
reconsidered in the current XML specification that it is not going to
happen.
