    <thetext>We have recently allowed processors to impose limits on version numbers for packages. Another aspect of the spec that has unlimited range is the priority attribute for templates.

I propose we do something similar as we did with versioning, except we can choose a more natural limit here, since it is only one number. I propose a rule something like the following:

&lt;proposal&gt;
Implementations may impose limits on the range of allowed decimal values and its precision, but it *must* be no less than 16 digits precision.
&lt;/proposal&gt;

This range follows the minimal range XSD 1.1 imposes.

I don&apos;t propose to use a new error for this, implementations can re-use error XTSE0020 (invalid attribute value).</thetext>

    <thetext>This bug was discussed today by the WG and decided to leave it unchanged, noting that this attribute is defined in terms of xs:decimal, which in turn has an implementation-defined limit itself already.

Closed with no action.</thetext>
