[tei-council] XInclude namespace in chapters

I've been struggling for a while this evening to figure out why I
couldn't validate the chapter source files; Oxygen was complaining that
the XInclude element wasn't allowed in e.g. <specGrp>, but I have Oxygen
set up to do XIncludes before trying to validate. Finally I realized
that all the XInclude elements in the chapters have this namespace:
http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude
whereas the actual XInclude namespace is this:
http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude
(2001, not 2003).
The 2003 namespace placeholder says:
"This document describes the namespace http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude.
This namespace name is deprecated and must not be used. Please use
http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude instead. "
Any reason why I shouldn't change this? It'll make it possible for us to
validate chapter fragments automatically.
Cheers,
Martin
