Re: [Serialization] SCHEMA-C

Mary,

     In [1], you submitted the following comment on the Last Call Working 
Draft of XSLT 2.0 and XQuery 1.0 Serialization on behalf of the XML Schema 
Working Group:

> [C] [Section 2: Serializing Arbitrary Data Models] Saying the process 
fails
> for sequences containing xs:QName or xs:NOTATION nodes seems unhelpful. 
What

error

Suggestion:

     Thanks to you and the working group for this comment.

     The XSL and XML Query Working Groups discussed the comment, and 
agreed that the description should indicate that this is a serialization 
error.  In fact, the second and sixth items in the numbered list in 
Section 2 already normatively indicate that fact.  For clarity, the note 
in Section 2 will be changed to use the term "serialization error" as 
well.

     As that is the change the XML Schema Working Group recommended, I 
trust it will be acceptable.  May I ask you to confirm that the working 
group finds the response acceptable?

Thanks,

Henry [On behalf of the XSL and XML Query Working Groups]
