Description John Arwe 2007-06-27 12:27:32 UTC
(from Submission copy of spec, Appendix C issue 2)

Decide which elements should be changed to global.
Intent is to allow re-use of parts of the SMLIF schema, like document collections and rule bindings, outside of a <model> element.  eg for a repository.  Could apply to types as well, "elements" is exemplary not limiting.

There was some work done on a proposal for this prior to submission that we can start with if desired.
Comment 1 John Arwe 2007-06-27 12:50:52 UTC
Also dup of Submission copy Appendix C issue 8
Comment 2 Virginia Smith 2007-10-17 17:52:57 UTC
John will send pre-submission proposal.

Proposed schema document for SML-IF
Comment 5 Sandy Gao 2007-11-26 15:58:44 UTC
Propose to change the following elements to global:
ruleBindings
ruleBinding
document
docinfo
aliases

The attached ("Proposed schema document for SML-IF") is the updated schema document. Other than changes to make the above global, the following changes were also made:
- Wrap 2 long lines, with minor attribute reordering
- Reordered a few global types so that they match the order they appear in the IF document structure

BTW, in earlier revisions, "dataType" allowed a "skip+##other" attribute wildcard, which disappeared recently. Can someone remind me which decision lead to that change? (The attachment does *NOT* contain a change for this.)
Comment 6 Kumar Pandit 2007-11-28 04:59:38 UTC
I agree with the proposed changes. 
Comment 7 Virginia Smith 2007-11-29 01:01:12 UTC
The dataType was changed in Bug 5047.
