Subject: [NEW ISSUE]: 4204 misleading text in sect 2.3 (Framework)


http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4204 

Title: misleading text in sect 2.3

Description: the text suggests that the schema can be found by dereferencing
the namespace URI. This is not quite true, since what you get when you
dereference the namespace URI is the RDDL document. Also, it suggests,
incorrectly, that it is the XML 1.0 namespace, not the WS-Policy 1.5 namespace
URI.

Justification: see above

Type: editorial

Proposal: 

In section 2.3 change:
A normative XML Schema [XML Schema Structures, XML Schema Datatypes] document
can be obtained by dereferencing the XML namespace URI.

To:
A normative XML Schema [XML Schema Structures, XML Schema Datatypes] document
can be obtained indirectly by dereferencing the RDDL document at the WS-Policy
1.5 namespace URI.
