Regarding the following extract from the last paragraph of Section 4.7 in
XML Schema Part 0 : Primer...

"...As with final, there exists also an optional finalDefault attribute on
the schema element whose value can be one of the values allowed for the
final attribute. The effect of specifying the finalDefault attribute is
equivalent to specifying a final attribute on every type definition and
element declaration in the schema. ..."

This was apparently copied from a preceding, similar paragraph regarding
finalDefault, without changing the word "final" to "block".  I believe the
text should read:

"...As with final, there exists also an optional blockDefault attribute on
the schema element whose value can be one of the values allowed for the
block attribute. The effect of specifying the blockDefault attribute is
equivalent to specifying a block attribute on every type definition and
element declaration in the schema. ..."

Thanks,

Peter Berggren
