Subject: Comments on the specification
General - James has done a really really terrific job! - Should we move "7. Restrictions" before "6. Semantics"? Note: I'm still reading 7.4. More about this tomorrow. Note: Some of my previous comments apply to this draft. I will revise them and send them to the TC again. 2. Data model The first itemized list says: "the sequence never contains two consecutive strings" However, "m1, m2" as defined in 6.2.2 may create such two consecutive strings. 3. Full Syntax - If the value of the datatypeLibrary attribute is always absolute, we should explicitly say so. - Can values of the datatypeLibary attribute contain fragment identifiers? I think that this should be disallowed. We use URIs merely as identifers, but fragment identifiers are used for describing behaviours of user-agents. - Strictly speaking, we do not have to allow #xD, since line-feed characters are replaced by #xA. However, we have to allow a character reference  , since the XML processor converts   to a space character. Then, why not #xD? - Isn't the type attribute optional for <value>? - "A boolean must be true, false, 1 or 0". I don't like this choice of permissible values. However, if we omit "global", we do not need booleans at all. 4.1 Annotations We certainly do not remove xml:base. 4.4 externalRef element > "from prevoius sectoins to this section" I first thought thes means Sections 1 through 3. 4.6 Last para "other then" should read "other than". 4.7 I would like to make sure which attributes in a grammar affects external grammars. Consider <grammar...> <div ns="..." xml:base="..." datatypeLibary="..."> <include href="bar.rng"/> </div> </grammar> . In my understanding, the ns and datatypeLibrary attribute applies to bar.rng, but xml:base does not. I think that a note about this would be hellpful. 4.16 The example is wrong. We need combine="c". 6.2 I would like to replace "bag" with "set". 6.2.2 To be precise, "+" for keys and key references have not been defined. ---- Murata Makoto mura034@attglobal.net
