RE: [search-ws-comment] SRU/CQL: clarification about fatal diagnostics

["LeVan,Ralph" <levan@oclc.org>]

I hope that isn't an example from our spec below!  That diagnostic is unrelated to explain and would only appear in a searchRetrieveResponse.

Yes, I'm aware of surrogate and non-surrogate diagnostics.

Maybe the section in the spec could be a little improved, by extending
the example in the specification and indicate the other XML elements, so
people don't get the wrong impression to just return the <diagnostics>
elements. (And additionally maybe indicate that, if the endpoint can
know the operation, it can wrap it in the appropriate response element).

"
 Non-surrogate, fatal diagnostic:
 <explainResponse xmlns="...">
   <version>1.1</version>
   <record>
     ...
   </record>
   <diagnostics>
     <diagnostic xmlns="http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/diagnostic/";>
       <uri>info:srw/diagnostic/1/38</uri>
       <details>10</details>
       <message>Too many boolean operators, the maximum is 10. Please
                try a less complex query.</message>
     </diagnostic>
   </diagnostics>
 </explainResponse>

Thank you and best regards,
 Oliver
