ebMS 3.0 Core Specification Section 5.2.2.11 MessageProperty

Hello,

 

This section of 
EBMS3CORE states the following about eb:Property:

An eb:Property element is of xs:anySimpleType (e.g. string, 
URI) and has two attributes:

  

  
@name: The value 
  of this REQUIRED attribute must be agreed upon between partners.

  

  
@type: This 
  OPTIONAL attribute allows for resolution of conflicts between properties with 
  the same name, and may also help with Property grouping, e.g. various elements 
  of an address.

 

Two 
comments:

 

1)  the type 
of eb:Property is of type Property, an extension of non-empty-string; the 
ebMS3 schema does not reference xs:anySimpleType. 

 

2)  the @type 
attribute is missing from the XML Schema at http://docs.oasis-open.org/ebxml-msg/ebms/v3.0/core/ebms-header-3_0-200704.xsd

The type attribute 
is useful so my preference would be to add it back to the 
schema.

 

Perhaps we should 
start a JIRA or spreadsheet for the TC to collect issues to handle in a 
future errata.
