Last Call review begins for XInclude

[Paul Grosso <pgrosso@arbortext.com>]

On behalf of the XML Core Working Group [Core-WG], we are pleased to
announce the publication of the "XML Inclusions (XInclude) Version 1.0"
Last Call Working Draft.
The document address is:
   http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude
or:
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-xinclude-20010516


The Last Call review period will end on 5 June 2001. Comments from W3C
Working Groups and Interest Groups should be sent by that date to the
public mailing list www-xml-xinclude-comments@w3.org [Archive], with
cross-posting to the originating Group, to facilitate discussion and
resolution.

ABSTRACT

This document specifies a processing model and syntax for general
purpose inclusion. Inclusion is accomplished by merging a number of XML
Infosets into a single composite Infoset. Specification of the XML
documents (infosets) to be merged and control over the merging process
is expressed in XML-friendly syntax (elements, attributes, URI
References).

BACKGROUND

At our 9 May 2001 teleconference, the XML Core WG decided to move the
XInclude specification to Last Call. At this time the XML Core WG 
is not aware of an issue with this document. The list of issues
that have been raised and resolved while elaborating the specification
can be found in the accompanying document [Issues].

All interesting parties are invited to send in review comments.

Thank you,

Arnaud Le Hors and Paul Grosso, Chairs of the XML Core WG
