Hi again, we discussed this on the WG call this morning and the consensus is: - omitting processContents="lax" was most likely an accident/mistake in the original spec - even though it's a low risk change, past experience and general policy lead us to conclude that changing the schema is just not something we're prepared to do, particularly given the low benefit of the change - however, if the use of "lax" has benefits to your creation of the RNG schema(s), you can feel free to treat it as though "lax" were used in all the wildcards consistently and we're comfortable with documenting that in the separate NOTE that the RNG material will be collected into if it will help explain matters The other issue I verified is that my responses to you about the legality of using the built-in elements like XPath and HMACOutputLength were correct. Those elements *can* explicitly appear in the content of extension algorithms defined elsewhere and that's intentional. -- Scott
