The XML Schema WG discussed this issue during this morning's telcon.

We thank the XSL and XML Query WGs for reiterating the importance 
of this question and ensuring that it is not lost track of.  The XML Schema
WG remains committed to the plan we agreed on with the QT working
groups in June 2007 and recorded in comment 2 of bug 3120
(http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3120#c2):
we plan to mark precisionDecimal as a feature at risk in our
Candidate Recommendation, and the exit criteria for CR will
include not only implementations in the context of XSD 1.1, but 
also the general state of industry uptake, and the state of the IEEE
documents.  (The IEEE documents, as it happens, have now been
published as final documents, so that might be regarded as 
having been overtaken by events.)

Since we expect to take up the issue raised in this bug report
when we progress XSD 1.1 from CR to PR, we are accordingly 
closing this issue as LATER.

Please let us know if you agree with this resolution of your issue, 
by adding a comment to the issue record and changing the 
Status of the issue to Closed. Or, if you do not agree with this 
resolution, please add a comment explaining why. If you wish 
to appeal the WG's decision to the Director, then also change 
the Status of the record to Reopened. If you wish to record 
your dissent, but do not wish to appeal the decision to the 
Director, then change the Status of the record to Closed. If 
we do not hear from you in the next ten days or so, we will 
assume you agree with the WG decision.
