Subject: Re: [office-comment] ODF schema is faulty (ODF all versions)


Alex, all,

The ODF schema is correct in its definition of ID types. It is only not 
Relax-NG DTD compatible. But the ODF 1.2 specification does not claim 
anywhere that the ODF 1.2 schema is DTD compatible. It even does not 
reference the Relax-NG DTD compatibility specification. Further, the 
Relax-NG specification also does not claim that all Relax-NG schemas 
have to be DTD compatible. So, everything is fine.

The first example is one that does not use xml:id, but ODF 1.2 uses 
xml:id. Later on, James Clark describes the situation for that case, and 
why it cannot be resolved without changing either the validation tools, 
or the RNG Compatibility specification (which also means that the tools 
have to be changed).
