Lexical space of unsigned integers.

Hi,

The rec states (for instance for unsigned unsignedLong:

"unsignedLong has a lexical representation consisting of a
finite-length sequence of decimal digits (#x30-#x39). For example:
0, 12678967543233, 100000."

which kind of say that "+123" or "-0" are invalid.

OTH, it is also written (and confirmed by the schema for schema) that:

"unsignedLong is ·derived· from nonNegativeInteger by setting the value 
of ·maxInclusive· to be 18446744073709551615. The ·base type· of 
unsignedLong is nonNegativeInteger. "

which would allow "+123" and "-0"...

Are those values valid?

Thanks

Eric
