This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
QT approved comment: Generally, 2.6.3 seems well constructed, but it seems to repeat a lot of material that has already been covered in 2.6.2 and 2.6.1. Looking at section 2 overall, it might seem worth making an early mention of the fact that the literals used as input to the mapping function for a datatype are not the literals as written in an instance document, but the literals that result from applying whitespace normalization rules.
Note that comment #0 uses the section numbering of the document version with change highlighting; for section 2.6, read section 2.4 in the version without change marks.

On 5 Dec 2008, the WG accepted a proposal, with some directed modifications that were not to be returened to the WG for further consideration, to satisfy this second part of the bug description. The result has been incorporated into the master datatypes.xml file, but a new SQ HTML version has not been generated.
Pproposal approved as amended is now in the status quo and most recent LCWD. Hereby marked FIXED. Mike Kay, please mark it CLOSED unless you have a new objection. (I assume you were OK with it when it was approved by the WG since you were present and didn't object.) As usual, no action within two weeks will be assumed to mean concurrence.
