| Regarding (section 5.3. Catalog Circularities):
|
|   "The URIs identified by catalog entries are not subject to catalog resolution."
|
| I don't know what "URIs identified by catalog entries" means.
| I'm not sure what "identified by catalog entries" means.
|
| Do we simply mean to say that none of the attributes in the XML Catalog
| namespace are to be "of type URI reference" in the sense that they shouldn't
| be "resolved" by the catalog process?  That is, they are all strings
| that might look like URI references and that, after getting returned to the
| calling program, are expected to be treated as URI references, but they
| are URI references as far as the catalog is concerned so they shouldn't
| be "resolved" by the catalog process?

No, they are URI references (and they're defined that way explicitly
so that xml:base will do the right thing), but they aren't subjected
to catalog resolution.

When the resolver processes <nextCatalog uri="foo"/>, it does not
attempt to find "foo" in a <uri .../> entry before retrieving it.

But I guess I'm not saying that clearly. I'm too tired right now to
try again, but I will.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
