| Apple's official utilities had been dropped the word "Computer". We should follow them. imac:~$ cat test.py __import__('plistlib').writePlist({}, 'test.plist') imac:~$ python test.py imac:~$ cat test.py __import__('plistlib').writePlist({}, 'test.plist') imac:~$ python test.py imac:~$ cat test.plist imac:~$ plutil -convert xml1 test.plist imac:~$ cat test.plist imac:~$ |

| I did a quick search and couldn't find any reference about this change, the examples in the apple doc still use 'Apple Computer'. Do you have any reference that says that the correct doctype (now) uses only 'Apple'? |

| How about this example from Mac OS X Reference Library "Property List Programming Guide": http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/PropertyLists/QuickStartPlist/QuickStartPlist.html Perhaps the fact that Apple officially changed the name from "Apple Computer" to "Apple" back in 2007 also helps: http://www.macworld.com/article/54770/2007/01/applename.html This one had a short URL, you can search Google for "apple computer changes name" for more (Forbes, Information Week, etc.) Do you have a reference where Apple docs written after 2007 use "Apple Computer"? |

| Also, on a Mac computer: - start Xcode 3.2.1 and select Help->Developer Documentation - type in the search box in the top right corner "property list" - the second hit is "Property List Programming Guide"; click on it - the second page gives the same example as the URL I put in - it uses DOCTYPE with /Apple/ only |

| I agree that the DTD should be changed. Fixed in r80279 (trunk) and r80280 (3.2). I won't backport to 2.6 and 3.1 because this is a mostly cosmetic issue and I do not want to risk breaking existing scripts. |
