Re: [sdd-comment] VersionRangeType

Jason,
  Why not remove the existing FixName from the schema?  To me, leaving it adds confusion and unnecessary complexity.  If you go with this proposal, can you not declare everything that you could with the existing FixName?  I can not think of a use case that requires this element.

Hello SDD TC,

In the SDD schema posted for review, there is a complex type called VersionRangeType that includes an element called FixName.  FixName in this case is associated with the range and not the MinVersion or MaxVersion elements.  I suggest adding FixName to MinVersion and MaxVersion in addition to leaving FixName associated with the overall range.  By adding FixName to MinVersion and MaxVersion, one can specify a minimum and maximum version that includes fix information specific to MinVersion and MaxVersion, for example, any Windows operating system between Windows 2000 SP1 and Windows Vista SP1.

Regards,
-Jason
