per my latest post to XSL-List | Addition of [[Namespace:reference]] to XSLTWiki

As I just posted to XSL-List I wanted to quickly let you all know that I just created a [[Namespace:reference]] entry on XSLTWiki.com as a place for the community to both keep updated and use a reference for Namespace:URI combinations for each released specification and working draft of XSLT, XPath, XQuery, and other commonly used specifications. As I am sure we have all painfully discovered when dealing with recently updated working drafts (as opposed to Recommended specs in which the namespace:uri combo's become solidified) we find ourselves having to update our stylesheets with the new values, something that can prove to be a real pain when trying to locate this information in a hurry.

Hopefully this will become something that we can all count on to be up-to-date given that the community as a whole can take on this responsibilty and as such make someones job as the W3C a little less stressful :)

Cheers :)
