    Subject: RE: [emergency] Fwd: [emergency-comment] CAP Normative Schema is improperly defined


    To be tediously correct:
    
    Unlike SGML, XML does not enable case folding. 
    Case mismatches are well-formedness errors by 
    definition.  It is not a platform dependency.
    It is a schema dependency.  If they are hardwired 
    in the toolkit (matching cases are well-formed 
    and the error still occurs), it is a platform 
    implementation error and not a comment against 
    the specification (but good to know).
    
    The simpleType to complexType conversion is 
    a platform dependency if the simpleType definitions 
    are valid.  I can conceive of why that might 
    be required, but again, it is not a comment 
    against the spec even if good to know.

    Some info from my side -
    
    Windows Borland tools for processing XML (the XML to recordset translator
    for C++/Delphi/etc.) require that simpletype be translated to complextype.
    This is a 'quick fix' but seems to work. For .NET, one of our guys is
    rewriting the schema to make it work. There were also some case typos in the
    1.0 spec (simpletype vs. simpleType - strongly 'typed' parsers such as the
    latest .NET version will not validate the schema when case is incorrect).
    All of these use the MSXML DOM.
    
    Cheers
