Description John Arwe 2007-10-08 19:09:40 UTC 
- confusing to see the attribute use before declaration in the second case

- if I actually follow the reading path from _Attribute Use_'s {attribute declaration} ("below") I see {value constraint} is absent and then upon return to _Attribute Use_ I see it say {value constraint} may not be absent.  Confusing.

- heading 3.2.2 says it describes attrib decl schema components, not attribute use schema components, yet one of the latter shows up in mid-tableau.  Seems like it would be appropriate to address this in the text preceding the tableau and/or the heading

- attrib decl schema component #2 in tableau, {type def} seems ripe for re-formatting in the style of {target ns}

The working group discussed this issue at its 2008-10-26 telecon. The WG believes that this issue has already bee addressed as part of the proposal adopted for bug 5152.

John, if you are satisfied with this resolution, please indicate so by changing the bug's status to CLOSED.  If you're not happy, please say why and REOPEN it instead.  Thanks.
Comment 5 John Arwe 2008-10-14 20:51:13 UTC 
I personally am satisfied, however the SML wg also needs to concur since they endorsed the original in comment 1.  I inadvertantly closed it before SML has endorsed the change, so I will now re-open (sorry for the addl traffic that causes).

For posterity, in comment 3 Sandy no doubt intended to start with: 
...at its 2008-09-26 telecon.

I changed 10 to 09 above, because I can't come up with an appropriately pithy time machine -related remark at the moment.
Comment 6 John Arwe 2008-10-16 18:14:22 UTC 
The SML working group endorsed this resolution on its telecon of 2008-10-16.
