Description Michael Kay 2006-05-09 10:46:35 UTC
QT approved comment:

In 3.3.3.1, the prose appears to allow a leading plus sign in the lexical representation of xs:decimal, but the regular expression does not.

Also note: In 3.3.3.1, the sentence "The mapping from values to ·canonical representations· is given formally in ·decimalCanonicalMap·." appears redundantly. It belongs (and appears again) in 3.3.3.2.

The RE is incorrect and should be fixed.

Correct.  It should be removed from 3.3.3.1 .
Comment 2 Dave Peterson 2006-09-26 03:30:48 UTC
The WG has approved the correction to the RE as proposed by the reporter; the second part of the reported bug will be dealt with separately by the WG.
Comment 3 Dave Peterson 2006-10-14 02:56:29 UTC
The WG has directed the editors to delete the first instance of the duplicated sentence, as suggested.
Comment 4 Dave Peterson 2006-10-14 03:06:31 UTC
Both points have been added to the status quo document.
