Description Sandy Gao 2006-11-06 20:59:44 UTC 
In 1.0, {disallowed substitution} on element declaration (from "block") didn't allow "list" or "union" (section 3.3.1). They are now allowed in 1.0, but they shouldn't be.

Similarly, 1.0 didn't allow "substitution" in simple types' {final}, but 1.1 now allows it (section 3.15.1).

Both changes should be reverted to match what 1.0 had.
Comment 1 Sandy Gao 2006-11-06 21:12:12 UTC 
The same applies to {final} on complex types. It should only allow {extension, restriction}.
Comment 2 Sandy Gao 2006-11-22 05:30:11 UTC 
Proposal: to change the component description as suggested.

Resolution: adopted at 2006-10-17 telecon.
