Description C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 2006-02-11 02:23:54 UTC 
This issue was originally reported by Kohsuke Kawaguchi.

Unit of length must be defined for the all primitive types, including
anyURI, QName, and NOTATION.

See
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-schema-comments/2001JanMar/0391.html
(http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-schema-comments/2001JanMar/0391.html).

Input from Straw Poll O-7

This item was mentioned in the meeting of 2003-09-18
(http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2003/09/xml-schema-ftf-minutes.html)

This requirement has been discharged; the current working draft of
Datatypes specifies how length is calculated for all datatypes (in the
case of types for which length has no useful meaning, the effect is
that any length facet given is ignored).
