yeah... have a date in the URI or a version number, but not both.

The latest oddity I've come across with namespaces is where a client
uses purl.org eg the namespace used in the XML is:

http://www.purl.org/companyML/1.0/

Apparently the reason for this is so they can put the schema for
markup wherever they like, and just update where the purl points
to....(!)
