Subject: Re: [ubl-ndrsc] UBL: question on CCT language component


Anne

I'm worried that in all this we might inadvertently drop the LC/NDR
resolution to use xsd:normalizedString wherever there is the possibility
that more than one space need be preserved (having business meaning).

I think it was decided for Identifier but there was less certainty about
using it for Code.

*I note that most Supp Comps are identifiers.*
Perhaps this got neglected as changes were made to the Schemas and
then the omissions reinforced as we discussed xsd:token versus xsd:string.
