http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=1834 Summary: lexical space of unsigned types needs clarification Product: XML Schema Version: unspecified Platform: PC URL: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-schema- comments/2005JulSep/0011.html OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: XSD Part 2: Datatypes AssignedTo: cmsmcq@w3.org ReportedBy: cmsmcq@w3.org QAContact: www-xml-schema-comments@w3.org The prose of the spec and the schema for schemas are at odds with each other for all of the unsigned numeric types. The prose says the lexical forms of these types contain nothing but digits, but the schema for schemas defines no pattern outlawing signs. Either a pattern should be added, or the prose should be changed. The implementations I've checked mostly follow the schema for schemas; if this is true for other implementations as well, then the prose should be changed, both in 1.0 and in 1.1.
