Subject:	[sca-j] [NEW ISSUE] XML schema type for @package of JavaImport/JavaExport is too restrictive

---

TARGET: Service Component Architecture Java Component Implementation Specification Version 1.1, Committee Draft 01/Public Review Draft 01 

DESCRIPTION: 

The non-normative description of the text has "xs:string" for the package attribute: <import.java package="xs:string" location="xs:anyURI"?/>. But the XSD uses xs:NCName: <attribute name="package" type="NCName" use="required"/>. 

As we use the OSGi-like package import/export with directives, NCName is too restrictive. For example, [] or : is not valid for NCName. 

PROPOSAL: 
Use xsd:string for the package attribute. 

Thanks, 
Raymond
