[xtm-wg] XTM 1.0 Spec -- Example inconsistencies

["Richard Marciano" <marciano@sdsc.edu>]

SOME MINOR INCONSISTENCIES IN THE EXAMPLES:

http://www.topicmaps.org/xtm/1.0/xtm1-20001204.html.

        There seems to be an inconsistency in some of the examples.  
For example, "4.7.1 <baseName> Element" defines the content model:
        <!ELEMENT baseName (scope?,baseNameString,variant*)>

yet, examples such as in section 4.3.1, show multiple <scope> 
subelements as in:
        <baseName>
          <scope><topicRef xlink:href="#plays"/></scope>
          <scope><topicRef xlink:href="#shortname"/></scope>
          <baseNameString>Hamlet</baseNameString>
        </baseName>

In section 4.3.1, the content model:
  <!ELEMENT scope ( topicRef  | resourceRef | subjectIndicatorRef )+>

suggests one <scope> element only followed by multiple <topicRef...>
subelements.

*************
** ALSO
*************
  <!ELEMENT variantName  ( resourceRef | resourceData ) >

suggests up to one resourceRef subelement, yet the example in section
"4.7.3 <variant> Element", has sections such as:

        <variantName>
          <resourceRef xlink:href="http:..."/>
          <resourceRef xlink:href="http:..."/>
        </variantName>

Is the example out of synch, or is it the content model?
