    <thetext>The Datatypes spec states:

&apos;The value space of ENTITY is the set of all strings that match the NCName 
production in [Namespaces in XML] and have been declared as an unparsed entity 
in a document type definition.&apos;

The commentator asserts that ENTITY is not a primitive datatype and that a 
processor need not enforce &apos;have been declared as an unparsed .. &apos;. A request 
is made to clarify this.

A similiar issue is raised for ENTITIES.

    <thetext>Discussed at the Oct. 25 concall:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2001Oct/0054.html 

The WG resolved to classify this as an error, and instruct the editors to 
prepare an erratum.

Status 2002/02: Draft erratum proposed by Paul Biron: 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2002Feb/0014.html 

Further discussion of the erratum at the f2f: 
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2002/02/xml-schema-ftf-minutes.html#ab2b3b3b5c13 

Further discussion at the March 28 telecon. Datatypes erratum approved. HST to 
prepare corresponding errata text for the Structures document, formulating the 
constraints which are no longer part of simple type validity.

Proposed Structures errata
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2002Oct/0313.html
was reviewed and approved with ammendments at the Nov. 1 telecon.
