The serialization specification is already explicit that characters #x1 through #x1F (other than whitespace) cannot be serialized in XML 1.0 and it states no such constraint for XML 1.1 other than for a comment node. The text is found in section 5.1.1: "For example, if the version parameter has the value 1.0, and the instance of the data model contains a non-whitespace control character in the range #x1 to #x1F, a serialization error [err:SESU0006] results. If the version parameter has the value 1.1 and a comment node in the instance of the data model contains a non-whitespace control character in the range #x1 to #x1F or a control character other than NEL in the range #x7F to #x9F, a serialization error [err:SESU0006] results." Thus, I feel that no change is necessary. Please re-open this bug if you find the quoted text insufficient. Thanks, Joanne
