really?
In, w3c's document, the following statements appear.
 - this results in all the child nodes of the DocumentFragment being
    moved to the child list of this node.
Umm, above "moved" word means what?
  copy-and-paste or cut-and-paste?

The class that I had developed in java has DocumentFragment Object,
and this class's publish() method insert this DocumentFragment into 
root Document's any Node. after invoking publish() method, 
is it correct this class's DocumentFragment member has no child nodes?
or not.
If the original node's of DocumentFragment remained in DocumentFragment
object, I can change the DocumentFragment's childnode's.

How Current well-known DOM implementaions handles it?
especially OpenXML?

Best,

Kihyun Yoon.
