Thanks Henry!
Your notes are a great historical memory. Here is an extract from your notes; it is spot-on to this discussion:
In the interests of time, XML 1.0 did not
define its own data model.
- So XPath had to define it.
- And XLink had to define it.
- And the DOM had to define it.
- Finally, later than we'd have liked,
we're about to get:
The XML Information Set or Infoset.
