Some datatype descriptions begin with a formal definition, others do not. Since the formal definitions do not serve to define the datatypes and are not referred to by hot-button links, it seems they should be simply statements about the datatypes, as is done in the descriptions that don't begin with a formal definition. In any case, they should be done uniformly.
In August and September 2009 the XML Schema working group performed triage on the remaining open issues in a WBS poll [1], whose results are summarized at [2] and accepted formally at [3]. In the course of that triage we decided to close this issue without further action. Since this is a WG issue, not an external one, I'm going both to mark it resolved and to close it.
