Correction: I forgot that the final draft uses a much more elegant rule
for parameter entities. They are still much more complicated to understand
and use than short end-tags, but there is not as much spec-space dedicated
to them as there once was.

"A writer is also a citizen, a political animal, whether he likes it or
not. But I do not accept that a writer has a greater obligation
to society than a musician or a mason or a teacher. Everyone has
a citizen's commitment." - Wole Soyinka, Africa's first Nobel Laureate
