Thank you very much for your comments, and for their clarity.

In the interests of tracking them, I have made Bugzilla entries for
the six comments in your note; they are at

   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6043
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6044
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6045
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6046
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6047
   http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6048

It would be very helpful if you, in your role as the transmitter of
the OWL WG's comments, were to register with the W3C's public
Bugzilla instance and add yourself (or some appropriate OWL WG
mailing list) to the CC list on these six issues; you will then be
notified automatically when the XML Schema WG updates the status
of the issues.  I would do it for you, but some people prefer to have
Bugzilla mail go to special-purpose mail addresses to avoid cluttering
their main inbox, so I have not done so in this case.

(If you have any difficulties with the Bugzilla interface, the  
information
at http://www.w3.org/XML/2006/01/public-bugzilla.html may be helpful;
if that fails, your staff contact or I will be able to help.)

I expect the XML Schema WG to take these issues up in the coming weeks;
you will hear back from us with the results in due course.

Please convey to the OWL Working Group the thanks of the XML Schema  
Working
Group for your reading of the XSD 1.1 Datatypes spec, and for your
comments.
