I have edited the 'EDITOR'S OPINION' section, *as well as* integrated my other comments (including fix of some typos) on texts related to formal semantics of datatypes. 

The updated draft is available at

http://dl-web.man.ac.uk/~panz/xsch-sw/. 

All changes are marked with a %%.

I have updated the two opinions as follows: 

 %%EDITORS' OPINION: Our preference is a position combining aspects of all three solutions which is to use @id where possible, and once XSCD goes to Rec to also use that, particularly for XML Schema that are not under the control of the RDF or OWL author. Jeremy Carroll, Jeff Pan 

 %%EDITORS' OPINION: Our preference is to use XPath eq despite it not being an equivalence relation (the difference between the two relations can be captured by the approximation mapping mapsTo). The advantage of this choice is the compatibility with XPath and SPARQL. We hope that the implementation problems are resolvable. Jeremy Carroll, Jeff Pan 

Greetings,
Jeff
