That would be a great way to piss people off (at least, I would be) Besides, I already explained why as a component and as a sitemap concept make sense and keep back compatibility. Sitemap 1.1 should be extending Sitemap 1.0, not provide any back-incompatible change, otherwise this is really sitemap 2.0 and I woundn't like that. -- Stefano Mazzocchi -------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: cocoon-dev-unsubscribe@xml.apache.org For additional commands, email: cocoon-dev-help@xml.apache.org
