Re: Testing 2 XML documents for equality - a solution

Hi Wendell,

Hey Dimitre,

In this concrete case "document equality" remains undefined.
Therefore, the problem based on it is also undefined.

I'm with you so far.

 Any activity to
solve an undefined problem is groundless and imaginary -- something
like hallucination.

I can accept this provisionally, leaving aside a discussion of what we
should mean by "groundless", "imaginary", and "hallucination". (Though
perhaps not on XSL-List. :-) Whether any such activity is a waste of time
is, however, another question. 

I cannot see where I said it was waste of time ?

As is whether this doesn't describe most of
what we human animals do -- try to solve undefined problems. (Sometimes
this activity might lead to defining a problem and solving it, after all. :-)


Exactly.

The main problem in this thread is to define the problem.


Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev
