Description Jerome Simeon 2005-05-07 23:15:47 UTC 
The working group approved changes to the XQuery book, and formal semantics to
add the following consistency constraint:

<<
Any reference to a global element, attribute, or type name in
the ISSD must have a corresponding element, attribute or type
definition in the ISSD.
>>

This is a new constraint, since currently the only constraint is on global
element attribute or type names used in sequences types, while this constraints
applies to element referenced from the ISSD. This constraints makes sure that
all information referenced from a schema is available and is required for
the proper operation of the static typing feature.
