Comment 1 Norman Walsh 2005-05-17 13:58:34 UTC 
Examples, the data type "monetaryAmount"

The monetaryAmount type works well for some currencies (USD, EUR,...), but does
not work for others (Yen,...). Please generalize. The number of fractional
digits needed currently is 0, 2, or 3. So instead of "/d+/./d{2}" please write
s.t. like "/d+/./d{2-3}?"

Based on Martin's review, comment [36]

consensus of the i18n-core-wg, telecon 27 may 2005: approved by i18n-core-wg.
Comment 3 Norman Walsh 2005-06-03 16:13:56 UTC 
The schema includes the comment

<!-- This example is for data model illustration only.
     It does not demonstrate good schema design. -->

and it's clearly a toy. Whilst I agree with the spirit of the comment,
getting the example right is tricky and requires meticulous attention
to detail. I'm not inclined to change it for this reason.
