<h2>Substantive changes since the last public working draft</h2>
<ul>
<!-- EdNote: After each WD publish, move contents of this list into the next one below. -->
<li>27-June-2019: Add statement allowing for the possibility of naming being prohibited on the root node. Note: This change in and of itself has no implementation impact, but it allows other specifications to optionally prohibit naming for a top-level element. Furthermore, even if this prohibition is made within a specification, that prohibition will not have any impact on calculating name from contents.</li>
