RE: Derivation by restriction from <any>

Upon investigating the W3C XML Schema Structures specification I've had
some difficulty locating where it specifies that one-to-many particle
derivations are acceptable. I would appreciate a pointer to where in the
recommendation it mentions that this is possible. From what I've read[0]
particle derivation is a one-to-one affair. 

Thanks.
