Michael Brauer commented on OFFICE-3440:
----------------------------------------

Dennis:

XSD 1.0 says:

"The - lexical space-  of anyURI is finite-length character sequences which, when the algorithm defined in Section 5.4 of [XML Linking Language] is applied to them, result in strings which are legal URIs according to [RFC 2396], as amended by [RFC 2732]. "

You proposal is: 

"The lexical space of anyIRI is finite-length character sequences which satisfy the syntax for [RFC3987] IRI-reference, a subset of the lexical space of anyURI."

where this text is a note rather than normative language. You are using the term lexical space here, that's true. But the definition of what the lexical space is different, isn't it? I am objecting to your proposal because the "lexical space" is exactly what makes up a datatype. If you say the lexical space "is finite-length character sequences which satisfy the syntax for [RFC3987] IRI-reference" then this says the valid anyIRI values are the valid IRIs, and only that.

> The rules for IRI references are slightly different than the rules for anyURI.  In particular, anyURI accepts ASCII characters that are excluded from IRI references by [RFC3987].
> Rather than qualify the use of anyURI to be specific to IRIs every place that anyURI is used in the current schema, it is recommended that this be handled in one place by introducing an anyIRI datatype that is  derivative of anyURI with an additional pattern constraint that eliminates the ASCII-corresponding characters that are excluded from IRI references in [RFC3987].
