Description Sandy Gao 2005-09-07 19:33:41 UTC
Is the itemType of a list meant to be of "atomic" type ONLY or of 
EITHER "atomic" OR "union" type? Sections 2.5.1.2 and 4.1.2.2 of Datatypes 
appear to be contradictory.

Comment 1 Sandy Gao 2005-09-07 19:42:34 UTC
It was intended that the itemType be either atomic or union. An erratum E2-15 
was be added to clarify this.
