We haven't defined any interaction between relevant and sum(). Sum works on
the XPath level; relevant is a separate 'constraint' tacked on to the XPath
model.

Same for minOccurs/maxOccurs.

Hi,

nodes with relevant='false' are not not serialized for submission (chapter
6.1.4).

What happens if an XPath expression such as sum() is used? Should irrelevant
nodes be ignored?

Does minOccurs and maxOccurs take irrelevant nodes into account?

Thanks,
Jérôme
