[Playlist] libSpiff issues, plans for the not-too-far future

[Sebastian Pipping]

Hello!


-- Introduction
Mails about foo_xspf with Clemens Terasa of foo_xspf
brought up the question whether xml:base can hold
relative URIs or not.  I've been talking to several
people about it since then.  The most helpful reply
came from Frans Englich.
Now it is clear to me that I mis-implemented support for
xml:base introduced in libSpiff 0.8.4.


-- Details and consequences
xml:base can not only hold relative URIs, it can also
appear in stacked manner:

  <foo xml:base="/one/">
    <bar xml:base="two/">
      some_uri
    </bar>
  </foo>

So this is quite a bit away from my previous understanding
of an always absolute URI only appearing in root elements ..
