------- Comment #2 from kumarp@microsoft.com  2008-03-07 03:17 -------
resolution (3/6 conf call): mark editorial once proposal accepted

Proposal:
[1]
Change the last sentence in section 4.3.1 SML URI Reference Scheme bullet 2.b,

from:
If there is no document retrieved, the SML reference scheme instance is
unresolved.

to:
If it does not retrieve a document in the current model, the SML reference
scheme instance is unresolved.

The updated sentence will have the word ‘document’ as a link to its definition
in the terminology section.

[2]
Add the following non-normative note immediately after the changed sentence:

Note:
As a result of the above definition, if the retrieved object is not of is not
of XML media type or if it is not well-formed XML then, by definition, that
object is not a document as defined by this specification. In this case, the
SML reference scheme instance is unresolved.

===
The SML WG believes that the above proposal resolves this issue fully.  I'm
changing its status accordingly.

issue, to whom the following request is addressed.
