Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (CMIS-596) CMIS-RestAtom.xsdreferences the undefined and unpublished atom.xsd



    [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/CMIS-596?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16903#action_16903 ] 

Norrie Quinn commented on CMIS-596:
-----------------------------------

What I proposed above was basically option 4 described here:
http://www.corneliadavis.com/blog/?p=65

Option 3 described in Cornelia's Blog could also be made to work with no dependency on an atom XSD.

However, the solution implemented in 1.0 draft 5 is a different one and IMO will lead to interop issues.

The spec now states:

>  The cmisra:children element that MUST be included in an atom entry:
>  <xs:element name="children" type="atom:feedType" />

There is nothing in the Atom spec that defines atom:feedType.  So although the schema import dependency has been removed, there is still an implicit reference here to a type in an Atom XML Schema (XSD).   Many implementers are not using XSD to work with Atom XML.  For example, the Alfresco and Chemistry implementations currently use Abdera extensions.

I think dictating that server implementers must specify an xsi:type reference to an unpublished XML Schema type, and requiring that consumers binding to XML Schema must name their XML type "feedType" is a fragile solution that will lead to interop issues.
