    Subject: RE: [emergency] EDXL DE - XML Schema Issue


    I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier, I've had all day meetings.
    
    It's my understanding that the revisions needed to be completed literally
    this past Monday and no later than this coming Monday.
    
    The documentation was verbose because that is the recommendation for XML
    standards from ISO and UN/CEFACT. UBL uses these guidelines as well. It is
    unusual that the documentation is exactly the same as the spec, however, I
    believe this was a result of a lack of time.
    
    WRT errors from Spy and Oxygen, as a software vendor of XML products, one of
    the things we have learned is that this is not unusual. The schema did
    validate with Xerces and I believe MVS. NIST has a free online website for
    testing schema using 3 validates.  As a TC, we need to determine how much QA
    we want to do, and, how we want to proceed if we find that well known IDE's
    use a different or relaxed interpretation of the W3C spec that causes
    problems.   
    
    If Renato sends me his suggestions, I will do my best to incorporate them.  
    
    I think the TC needs to decide if they want to move forward or delay one
    more month to allow us to do one more QA.
