We agree it was unclear, but we find that calculate merely defaults readonly to true, and that it can be set to false, and that there are use cases, namely default value. We tested the use case and found it works. We changed the note in 4.3.6 [ http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#evt-recalculate] and put an example in MIP for readonly [ http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/specs/XForms1.1/index-diff.html#model-prop-readOnly] Please let us know if this resolution is acceptable.
