MB had reviewed last weeks proposal. Did not like scoping rules which are different from normal scoping rules. Agreed to not allow in-line syntax so no need for scoping rules.
2.Unordered
Choice infoset order
Previous call had decided infoset should
be in order of data. SH pointed out that validation will fail unless sequenced
data is in schema order. Agreed to change back to schema order. Document
that data order can be achieved using an array of choice.
Discussed changing to Schema 1.1 for updated syntax of xs:all which provides erquired syntax. Felt that is was too late to change now but IBM will talk to Sandy Gao to assess impact.
3. Selectors
Discussed SKK's note and SH reply.
Suggest simple syntax where ONE of the
format statement on an item is used. Format which matching the selector
will be be used otherwise if NONEof the format selectors match, the
format with NO selector specified will be used.
To be consistent ony ONE format statement
will be allowed in a defineFormat.
4. Padding
Agreed to restrict padding to string
text variable length with minlength facet. No need for an extra property.
4. AOB
Will discuss End of Data next week
Next call 22st Oct
AP will be away for the next 2 weeks.
