           Summary: R-211: The {attributes} property on the Annotation
                    schema component

The {attributes} property on the Annotation schema component is described as "A 
sequence of attribute information items, namely those allowed by the attribute 
wildcard in the type definition for the <annotation> item itself or for the 
enclosing items which correspond to the component within which the annotation 
component is located."

errata.html#declare-annotation 

The XML Information Set spec, on the other hand, defines the [attributes] 
property of element information items as containing a set, not a sequence, of 
attribute information items.

http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.element 

I think the XML Schema spec should probably similarly specify a set, not a 
sequence, of attribute information items.
