I would like to find a better way to do this:

XmlNode nodeXML = xmlDoc.AppendChild(
    xmlDoc.CreateXmlDeclaration( "1.0", "utf-8", String.Empty) );

I do not want to think about “utf-8” vs “UTF-8” vs “UTF8” vs “utf8” as I type code. I would like to make my code less prone to typos. I am sure that some standard library has declatred "utf-8" as a const / readonly string. How can I find it? Also, what about “1.0”? I am assuming that major XML versions have been enumerated somewhere as well.

Thanks!
