------- Comment #1 from cmsmcq@w3.org  2006-10-11 02:15 -------
On 18 February 2005, the Working Group approved a proposal (keyword:
'modals') which among other things changed the relevant conjunction
from "if" to "if and only if".  In the status-quo document, this
paragraph now reads

    If the item cannot be strictly assessed, because neither
    clause 1.1 nor clause 1.2 above are satisfied, [Definition:]
    an element information item's schema validity must be laxly
    assessed if and only if its context-determined declaration is
    not skip by validating with respect to the ur-type definition
    as per Element Locally Valid (Type) (§3.3.4).

(The change from 'may' to 'must' was a separate change, approved
in August 2006 at the face to face meeting.)

Accordingly, I'm not reclassifying this issue as 'resolved / fixed'.
If either of the two original principals (Sandy Gao or Henry Thompson),
or for that matter anyone else, believes this issue has been wrongly
decided, they should re-open it.  If SG or HST believe the decision
resolves the original issue, they should change the status of the
issue to 'closed'.
