Phil,

Your comment below indicates a simple solution to some of the issues
that I and others have raised.

---------------
[...] This data, then represented as hexadecimal 
characters, can be subsequently transformed by a receiving 
application into Base64 characters. [...] On encoding these binary
objects, they can be encoded directly into the hexadecimal
representation required by the OCTET STRING type specified in the XCBF
ASN.1 Schema, then converted after schema validation into Base64 by the
recipient.
---------------

So we agree that base-64 is NOT used in the actual XML messages being
exchanged.  So we do NOT change the ASN.1 modules.

How shall we proceed in relation to the other comments?
