In the JSDL Schema (Page 46, Paragraph: 8.1.1.1) it specifies that a POSIX style application MUST appear only once if it is present as a sub-element of the JSDL Application element.
If a POSIX style application DOES NOT appear under the JSDL Application Element, can it appear more than once in a JSDL file? If yes, what is the maximum number of occurrences?
It is syntactically legal to put it multiple times as a child of any element that has an extensible content model (i.e. xsd:any) other than the Application element (as you note). _BUT_ we do not define the meaning of the resulting document if you do that; it's not our place to prevent you from blowing your own foot off... :-) (Many drafts did have restrictions on where you could put elements, but it turns out that's a bad idea as it prevents good forms of reuse as well as bad.)
