           Summary: inconsistent target ns description
           Product: XML Schema

In some places, e.g. but not limited to 3.6.2 and 3.7.2, {target ns} is
described as "The ·actual value· of the targetNamespace [attribute] of the
ancestor schema element information item."

In other places, e.g. 3.4.2, the same property is described differently
"The ·actual value· of the targetNamespace [attribute] of the <schema> ancestor
element information item if present, otherwise ·absent·."

They should be consistent.  Which is correct depends upon whether or not absent
is considered an actual value (I suspect it is not).
