Done, see [7]. I didn't put Glenn's exact words, however, as I found reading them that they implied that character data includes PIs, comments and even child elements. What I ended up recording is the following: 3. The declaration matches Mixed<add>,</add> and the content (after replacing any entity references with their replacement text) consists of character data <add>(including CDATA sections)</add>, comments, PIs and child elements whose types match names in the content model. 4. The declaration matches ANY, and the content (after replacing any entity references with their replacement text) consists of character data<add>, CDATA sections, comments, PIs</add> and child elements whose types have been declared. I hope that this is acceptable and that I got the commas right. I also added a rationale, which I'd appreciate being reviewed before publishing: Rationale The spec was not clear that CDATA sections, comments and PIs may occur in elements with content models Mixed and ANY. Section 2.5 says that "Comments MAY appear anywhere in a document outside other markup". Section 2.7 says that "CDATA sections MAY occur anywhere character data may occur". The case for PIs is a little bit less clear, but is supported by the wording for Mixed in this VC, by the equal treatment of PIs and Comments in productions [27] Misc and [29] markupdecl, as well as by widespread practice. -- François >>[7] >>http://www.w3.org/XML/2004/02/proposed-xml10-3e-and-xml11-errata.html
