------- Comment #2 from cmsmcq@w3.org  2006-03-21 00:39 -------
At the face to face meeting of January 2006 in St. Petersburg,
the Working Group discussed this issue.  While there was some
sentiment for giving it a high priority, in the end the Working
Group decided not to take further action on this issue in 
XML Schema 1.1.

The rationale for the Working Group's decision was simple: the
obscurity regarding anySimpleType appears not to be causing
serious difficulties in practice (our collection of a thousand
schema documents found 'in the wild' has no instances of unions
which have anySimpleType as a member), and it was not felt useful
to delay Datatypes 1.1 while the Working Group discussed this
issue further.

Accordingly, I am marking this issue as RESOLVED / WONTFIX.
