In almost every case I have found a lack of understanding of namespaces — or, in the presence of understanding, hands-on confusion in working with and debugging namespace-related issues.

This does create some sticky issues because its direct use of XML syntax means it can cause a bit of confusion when embedded in other tag-based formats.

And I faced down my own confusion as a mother, as a woman, about the issues that raising a girl raises in me about my own femininity.
