<xi:include> XInclude

Adds the XInclude mechanism to the NISO STS Tag Set, so that standards and adoption documents can be managed as separate files and “included” as needed into a final document.

Usage/Remarks

For details concerning the use of XInclude, see https://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/.
The optional <xi:fallback> child can be used to specify alternative content when the resource to be included was not found.
