And, since unsignedLong is derived from decimal, should the minimum number of digits supported be 20 instead? See: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2003Dec/0025.html Note: this relates to issues raised in R-90 (bug 2080) 6235 1 sandygao 2005-09-14 19:15:45 +0000 Discussed at the 2003/12/19 telecon: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2003Dec/0064.html 6957 2 sandygao 2005-10-28 19:01:34 +0000 Discussed at 2005-10-28 telecon [1]. We have discussed this specific point, and concluded that while it looks anomolous, there is no actual problem here: either you only cover 18 digits in the derived types as well, or you use a different underlying implementation. Resolution: So close this with no further action: RESOLVED, WONTFIX. [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2005Oct/0022.html
