Re: [xml] XInclude and Namespaces

[Daniel Veillard <veillard redhat com>]

  Yep, the href is an URI-Reference, and hence should be context insensitive
there is a special construct xmlns(s=....)#xpointer(/s:slideset...) in recent
XPointer drafts to map the s prefix to the URI for the namespace, see
   http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr/#ns-context
this should work in libxml2, if not it's a bug :-)
I did not check the latest set of XPointer drafts, I expect the construct to
still be there.
