[Bug 3264] xs:anyURI definition

--- Comment #7 from C. M. Sperberg-McQueen <cmsmcq@blackmesatech.com>  2009-04-13 17:32:18 ---
Having reviewing the occurrences of "possibly empty", I believe
that it is only those occurring in the descriptions of hexBinary,
base64Binary, and anyURI that are prone to the unsatisfactory
reading identified by Noah.  The others differ in syntax or context
enough that I do not believe they need to change.

So I propose to amend my proposed amendment to the wording
proposal to include analogous changes in hexBinary and
base64Binary, from

    ...  the set of possibly empty finite-length sequences of 
    binary octets 

to 

    ...  the set of finite-length sequences of zero or more 
    binary octets

The press of time is a good reason for not going out of our
way to find minor improvement to the spec and raise new
issues about them.  But in this case we have an issue and need
to change the spec in either case; if we can do so without
delaying the WG I don't see that we should not try to make
the wording as clear as we can, in the time available.
