RE: XML Schema WG comments on Functions and Operators

Hi Xan:
Those are the correct issues lists and my recollection is that all
issues were resolved in both the datamodel and F&O lists.

On Schema comment 1.4 it is possible that we did not create an issue but
just discussed and resolved it.  We decided that all functions that
accept or return xs:anyURI accept/return xs:string.  This is partly
because of backwards compatibility with XPath 1.0 functions and partly
because we did a poll and found that most implementations do not
validate the lexical forms of xs:anyURI.  We've discussed this in the
Schema WG and decided that only modest validation was possible.
Microsoft products do some validations but others do not.  Thus, they
treat xs:anyURI as xs:string.

We decided that 2.4 was editorial and changed the wording of a note that
discusses surrogate pairs.

I believe the datamodel issues were also closed but I don't remember
exactly how they were resolved.

All the best, Ashok

Ashok,

As part of reviewing the latest F&O draft for the XML Schema WG, I'm  
trying to track the issues previously raised by XML Schema WG.  You  
provided a very useful unofficial response [1] to all of the comments.

Most items had one of the following dispositions:

1. created discussion thread (1.4 strings and URIs, 2.4. Surrogate  
pairs)
2. created a Data Model issue (DM-LC1-0129, DM-LC1-0130, DM-LC1-0131 in

[2])
3. created an F&O issue (LC1-100, LC1-103, LC1-104, LC1-111 in [3])
4. described a completed editorial change

For the items in #1, I don't see them on any recorded issue list.  Is  
there a different issues list I should be reading, besides [2] and [3]?

  And has there been any resolution on the items in #2?  The issues list

just says "Cross-WG discussions are underway" on each of these.

Thanks,

xan
