Re: [Inkscape-devel] extension namespace

Most people who I know and who are not computer nerds would not manage to put a namespace attribute into some XML file, even if they would get clear instructions :-) Ok, the number of unexperienced users who ever installed some custom inkscape extension might be small, but why bother them if there are other solutions?

Agreed. This is not a bug that the old inx files have no namespace, it's just previous version format. We must support it, just as we support Sodipodi namespace and even the "duck prion" namespace (which _was_ a bug).
