containing all bookmarks inside a single Pubsub item.</p>
<p>Most implementations have kept to the original, Private XML Storage based solution, and
while some newer implementations have used Pubsub, these are limited in capability by the use of
a single item.</p>
<p>This specification resolves both issues by providing a new Bookmarks specification to migrate to,
a single item, which prevents safe atomic updates of individual bookmarks.</p>
<p>Finally, while some clients used custom XML elements to store additional private metadata about
bookmarks, this was usually stripped when any bookmark was edited by another client.</p>
<p>This specification resolves all three issues by providing a new Bookmarks specification to migrate to,
and takes the opportunity to update the XML namespace in use as well. The URL storage is dropped,
since it is rarely used. Storage of URL bookmarks is therefore out of scope.</p>
<p>This specification was originally entitled "Bookmarks 2: This Time It's Serious". Any implication of a sense
of humour has been removed with the change in title.</p>
