Re: restriction against base type (choice - elt)

Hi,

If you take your initial sample and remove the substitution group you 
will get exactly to that situation:

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<xs:element name="head"/>
<xs:element name="m1"/>
<xs:element name="m2"/>

<xs:complexType name="base">
  <xs:sequence>
   <xs:element ref="head"/>
  </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

<xs:complexType name="derived">
  <xs:complexContent>
   <xs:restriction base="base">
    <xs:sequence>
           <xs:choice>
              <xs:element ref="m1"/>
              <xs:element ref="m2"/>
           </xs:choice>
    </xs:sequence>
   </xs:restriction>
  </xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>

</xs:schema>

Best Regards,
George
