clause 3.2 of Element Locally Valid (Element)

Hi all,

Clause 3.2 of Element Locally Valid (Element) is mentioned many time in the
spec, in the form of "... is (not) satisfied / did (not) apply". The
content of such clause is:

"3.2 If {nillable} is true and there is such an attribute information item
and its ·actual value· is true , then all of the following must be true:
3.2.1 The element information item must have no character or element
information item [children].
3.2.2 There must be no fixed {value constraint}."

Then to determine whether 3.2 is satisfied or did apply, should we consider
3.2.1 and 3.2.2. That is, if "nillable == true" and "xsi:nil == true", but
one of 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 is not satisfied, whether 3.2 is satisfied (or did
apply)?
