Dependencies of schema processing on canonical lexical representations should be removed. This will eliminate the need for processors to ever produce a canonical representation, for example for a default value. This will also address RQ-126 (#restrict-can-forms). Rewrite Structures to eliminate dependency on canonical forms. See thread starting at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2002Dec/0079.html (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2002Dec/0079.html). [N.B. the requirement is not, as sometimes paraphrased, to make canonical lexical representations non-normative, but to remove dependencies on them.] This item was discussed in the meeting of 2003-11-04 (http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2003/11/xml-schema-ftf-minutes.html) This item was discussed, and phase-1 agreement was reached, in the meeting of 2004-03-19 (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2004Mar/0072.html). This requirement applies to both Structures and Datatypes; this Bugzilla entry is for Datatypes. The Structures equivalent is bug 1849. No dependencies on canonical forms currently exist in the Datatypes spec, so I am marking this resolved.
