    Subject: [xacml] [CR] DataType attribute required?


    DataType attribute in AttributeDesignatorType is 'required'. But in most
    cases, AttributeDesignator is used below the matching function (e.g.
    string-match) and that function is type-specific. So I think "DataType"
    attribute is not required. I propose to change it to "optional".
    
    <xs:complexType name="AttributeDesignatorType">
      <xs:attribute name="AttributeId" type="xs:anyURI" use="required"/>
      <xs:attribute name="DataType" type="xs:anyURI" use="required"/>
      <xs:attribute name="Issuer" type="xs:anyURI" use="optional"/>
    </xs:complexType>
    
    [should be]
    <xs:complexType name="AttributeDesignatorType">
      <xs:attribute name="AttributeId" type="xs:anyURI" use="required"/>
      <xs:attribute name="DataType" type="xs:anyURI" use="optional"/>
      <xs:attribute name="Issuer" type="xs:anyURI" use="optional"/>
    </xs:complexType>
