The "Status of this Document" section of the XML Primer dated May 2, 2001 states It is a stable document and may be used as reference material or cited as a normative reference from another document. On the other hand, the "Abstract" section of the XML Primer dated May 2, 2001 states XML Schema Part 0: Primer is a non-normative document intended to provide an easily readable description of the XML Schema facilities ... Also, section 1 "Introduction" of the XML Primer dated May 2, 2001 states The primer is a non-normative document, which means that it does not provide a definitive (from the W3C's point of view) specification of the XML Schema language. Is it not contradictory to say that a "non-normative document" can be "cited as a normative reference from another document"? Donald Gignac "gignacda@nswccd.navy.mil" 301-227-3348
