This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
This bug is from the SML workgroup as a whole, decided at 2007-10-15 to -17 F2F meeting. The SML spec wishes to use the same xpath subset Schema 1.1 uses when defining SML identity constraints across documents. Giving that subset a name would make it easier for SML and other specs to conveniently refer to the existing definition rather than replicating the definition or using less crisp/durable means to refer to it.
In an effort to make better use of Bugzilla, we are going to use the 'severity' field to classify issues by perceived difficulty. This bug is getting severity=minor to reflect the existing whiteboard note 'easy'.
A wording proposal intended to resolve this issue was sent to the XML Schema WG on 7 March 2008. http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.omni-200803b.html (member-only link). Those interested in this issue may review the proposal and are invited to comment on it.
At its telcon on 2008-03-14, the XML Schema WG adopted the wording proposal at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-1/structures.omni-200803b.html (member-only link), and believes this issue now to be resolved. John, please let us know if you agree with this resolution of your issue, by adding a comment to the issue record and changing the Status of the issue to Closed. Or, if you do not agree with this resolution, please add a comment explaining why. If you wish to appeal the WG's decision to the Director, then also change the Status of the record to Reopened. If you wish to record your dissent, but do not wish to appeal the decision to the Director, then change the Status of the record to Closed. If we do not hear from you in the next two weeks, we will assume you agree with the WG decision.
looks great
