Yes, that is correct.

I looked through the latest spec and I can't find any reference to
an XHTML ResponseWriter, nor is there any code that automatically
generates an xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";.  As far as I can see,
the only way to get an xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" through to
the user agent is to put it there as Andy suggests.

Therefore, our existing resolution stands.

B> We agree that the multi-namespace cases can wait.  The XHTML

B> basic cases where the namespace needs to be passed through.

Again with the XHTML ResponseWriter.  Am I missing something?
