Regarding the draft at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/PER-xmlschema-1-20040318/:
Section 3.10.1 says [single quotes represent italics]:
... items that:
1. ('any') have any namespace... ;
2. ('not' and a namespace name) are namespace-qualified ... ;
3. ('not' and ·absent·) are namespace-qualified;
4. (a set whose members are either namespace names or ·absent·)
have ... .
That would be clearer (and possibly more correct) if the form were:
... items that:
1. (for 'any') have any namespace... ;
2. (for 'not' and a namespace name) are namespace-qualified ... ;
3. (for 'not' and ·absent·) are namespace-qualified;
4. (for a set whose members are either namespace names or ·absent·)
have ... .
(I think the second form is probably more correct than the first
because the exact same words can be used in the form with a pair
of commas:
... items that, for 'any', have any namespace...
(No, I'm not suggesting changing the parentheses to commas.))
