Russ Cox: I would like to drop Context from the API. Can we do that? It seems to me that even if you're in the middle of a document you can just introduce new prefixes as needed. Russ
Russ Cox: Perhaps, but perhaps not. I think that if you need to send a in the jabber:client name space, you can always send instead of needing to know what the outer version is called. Russ
Chris Jones: Thanks for reviewing. I don't know how you'd introduce a new prefix other than with a tag, and tags are static and difficult to use on an as-needed basis. But the problem is really more about introducing existing prefixes rather than new ones. Imagine you're emitting XML that's going to go into the middle of an XML doc, and some prefixes have already been declared in that doc. It would be clumsy to redeclare those prefixes, or to declare new ones for the same namespaces. An XMPP implementation
