I don't believe this note is correct. 3.5.3.2 says that if an abstract component is not matched by any xsl:override or xsl:accept declaration, then the corresponding component in the using package has visibility="hidden", which is exactly as if it were explicitly accepted with hidden visibility. (One could argue that the Note is correct if "accepted" is read as "explicitly or implicitly accepted", but that's not the natural reading.) I think that XTSE3080 can now arise only if the top-level package explicitly declares an abstract component. 128929 1 mike 2017-10-13 20:19:53 +0000 Erratum E4 has been drafted/ 128949 2 mike 2017-10-29 23:19:37 +0000 The proposed erratum was accepted.
