Description Richard Tobin for XML Core WG 2005-05-03 14:15:28 UTC 
2.6.1
Can an instance of the data model contain documents from the same
namespace that have been validated with different schemas?  In that
case, there may be different types with the same expanded-QName.
Comment 1 Norman Walsh 2005-06-20 18:31:31 UTC 
That's not allowed. I've reworded the paragraph in question to make that clearer:

The data model relies on the fact that an expanded-QName uniquely
identifies every named type. Although it is possible for different
schemas to define different types with the same expanded-QName, at
most one of them can be used in any given validation episode. The data model
cannot support environments where different types with the same expanded-QName
are available.

Please let us know if this resolution is unsatisfactory.
