Choices

Martin Roberts added the following comment to the OASIS-CAM-Specifications-1_0-RC-017C-021904.doc document in the OASIS Content Assembly Mechanism TC Group.

I think there is some confusion over choices:  examine the following:

<root>
	<choiceTypeOne>
		<!-- choices are indicated because they have the same ID-->
		<choice1 as:choiceID="123">one</choice1>
		<choice2 as:choiceID="123">two</choice2>
	</choiceTypeOne>
	<choiceTypeTwo>
		<!-- Choices have independant ID -->
		<choice1 as:choiceID="123">one</choice1>
		<choice2 as:choiceID="345">two</choice2>
	</choiceTypeTwo>
	<choiceTypeThree>
		<!-- what doe sthis mean? -->
		<!-- either it is two choices of type one -->
		<!-- or two groups of elements that are mutually exclusive -->
		<choice1 as:choiceID="123">one</choice1>
		<choice2 as:choiceID="123">two</choice2>
		<choice3 as:choiceID="123">three</choice3>
		<choice4 as:choiceID="345">four</choice4>
		<choice5 as:choiceID="345">five</choice5>
	</choiceTypeThree>
</root>

I have shown three choices and I think the last needs to be allowed in either interpretation but how do we get the predicates right.
