However, conforming >processors may set larger >·implementation-defined ·limits on the maximum >number of digits they support in these two >situations. "For this specification" suggests that Schema does not allow/require such minimums, but it does require the same minimums. Dave Peterson for the XML Schema WG 3343 1 ashok.malhotra 2005-05-13 20:26:02 +0000 Pertains to Schema 1.1 Dave Peterson for the XML Schema WG. 3347 2 mike 2005-05-13 20:37:39 +0000 While on the topic, I can't help feeling that the literal meaning of "must support year values with a minimum of 4 digits" is "must support all year values that have four or more digits", whereas it's the opposite that's intended. 3105 3 ashok.malhotra 2005-05-19 14:32:33 +0000 This was discussed during the joint QT WGs meeting on 5/18/2005 and it was decided to remove the words "For this specification".
