Re: [xml-dev] unicode characters within XML documents
Hi Mike,

My guess would be that Microsoft chose an ASCII encoding for this file rather than a UTF-8 encoding because, at the time, CVS repositories could be very temperamental about file encodings.

For the XML document, that I cited (it seems to be, contributed by Microsoft) from w3c xml schema test suite, as following,

<doc value="&#x0600;&#x0601; ...... 

Why do you say, its encoded with ASCII (is this what you're saying) and not UTF-8?
