1. It seems to be superfluous to have an minOccur and maxOccur on modelGroup as modelGroup can only appear immediately as the child of the schema and modelGroupRef has a minOccur and maxOccur. When generating a DTD from a schema, the repeat counts of a modelGroup could not be put into the entity declaration (in chance it conflicted with the repeat counts of a reference), so there would not be an equivalence of the modelGroup and the entity. 2. It would be useful in the eventual documentation section that the Ref tags (dataTypeRef, elementTypeRef, entityRef, notationRef,modelGroupRef, attrGroupRef) allowed string content (current empty). The use would be something like The <datatypeRef name="integer">integer</datatypeRef> is used by many attributes of the <elementTypeRef name="CountingToTen">CountingToTen</elementTypeRef> element. It would be useful to have an element that represents a reference to an attribute. Unfortunately, there is not an unambiguous way in the current draft to reference an attribute. If this is allowed, then the <fixed> and <default> content of datatypeRef need to be moved to <elementType> and <attrDecl>
