If you change the namespace then you

I find this a nice argument, to keep the namespace name same for different
versions of an XML vocabulary (and the XSLT language as well).


It is unfortunate that there is a date in the namespace but that was
forced by W3C policy at the time (which was later changed) but early
ones, eg mathml 1998, xslt and xhtml 1999, are stuck with the original
dates.


 Thanks for sharing this perspective.
