Dear James - As you are aware, the W3C XML Schema Working Group has spent the last several weeks working through the comments received from the public on the Candidate Recommendation (CR) of the XML Schema specification. We thank you for the numerous comments you made on our specification during our CR comment period, and want to make sure you know that all comments received during the CR comment period have been recorded in our CR issues list (http://www.w3.org/2000/12/xmlschema-crcomments.html). Among several others, you raised the point registered as issue CR-33 Add a formal grammar for regular expressions? Specifically, you suggested that the definition of regular expressions would be clearer and easier to understand if a formal grammar were provided. The WG agrees, and has instructed the editors to provide one in the next publication of the specification. It would be helpful to us to know whether you are satisfied with the decision taken by the WG on this issue, or wish your dissent from the WG's decision to be recorded for consideration by the Director of the W3C. Regards Michael Sperberg-McQueen XML Schema Working Group
