Issue

"What is the scope of using XLink?" xlinkScope-23
- Raised by Tim Berners-Lee (but there is a longer history).
- DesignIssue on "When should I use XLink?" concludes that:
  - XLink should be used for "hyperlinking in UI applications"
Raises a number of questions:
- Should XML-based hypertext languages use XLink for hypertext linking?
- Are there multiple kinds of Links?
- Is any piece of content whose value type xsd:anyURI a link?
The HTML-WG regard XLink as inadequate for linking in XHTML
- Doesn't provide backward compatibility for XHTML instance documents.
