xml-dev folks,

I'm *very* sorry for the confusion my sloppy mail has caused. Thanks=20
to the individuals that noticed me (there was quite a lot of private=20
mail). A good sign, people care.=20

This is wrong again. *bummer*

This is wrong, too. "xml" must be lower-case.

Why ? Productions [24] and [25] in section 2.8 !

[24]=A0 XMLDecl ::=3D '<?xml' VersionInfo EncodingDecl? SDDecl? S? '?>'
[25]=A0 VersionInfo ::=3D S 'version' Eq=20
('"VersionNum"'|=A0"'VersionNum'")=20

So the minimal correct PI is: <?xml version=3D"1.0"?>
