After this change, the relevant part of 3.1 will read: To facilitate usage in specifications other than the XML Schema definition language, such as those that do not want to know anything about aspects of the XML Schema definition language other than the datatypes, each ·built-in· datatype is also defined in the namespace whose URI is: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-datatypes Note: The status quo says "each non-special built-in datatype ...:, We added 'non-special' when we deprecated the namespace, probably on the theory that (1) anySimpleType is not in the namespace as described in 1.0 and (2) if we were going to deprecate it, it made no sense to 'maintain' it or bring it up to date. I propose to revert the change for simplicity: "all built-ins" is simpler than "all non-special built-ins". Reliable authority says RelaxNG doesn't care and can live with specials in the namespace or not in the namespace. MSM's recommendation: Quick. Adopt proposal as shipped. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
