    <thetext>In my opinion test schZ014_b of set MS-Schema2006-07-15 should be valid for schema 1.1. Or is there any clause in the spec which prohibits empty values for the targetNamespace attribute? 

The anyURI datatype doesn&apos;t (&quot;The ·lexical space· of anyURI is the set of finite-length sequences of zero or more characters (as defined in [XML]) that ·match· the Char production from [XML].&quot;)

Section 3.17.2 XML Representations of Schemas says: &quot;...supplying an empty
string for targetNamespace is incoherent, and is not the same as not specifying
it at all.&quot;

So an empty value for targetNamespace is incoherent but not prohibited. Or is there some other clause in the spec which prohibits empty strings for the targetNamespace attribute?</thetext>

    <thetext>Noted that in part 1 there are only two remaining places where we talk of something being &quot;incoherent&quot;, and in the other case we associate the phrase with a &quot;must not&quot; prohibition.</thetext>
