The validation of the XML-Declaration will be done on the basis of the official W3C Specification.

| The syntax of this version designation "a:Z-._0" is right, but the meaning of it is totally stupid.
At the moment only XML version 1.0 exists, but the version designation has to be validated, so that future XML-Versions
can be valitated according to the right DTD or scheme.
