is this based on where the qualifier goes or how we interpret the
qualifier?
</Quote1>
I would say it is based on where the qualifier goes. So in our case, we
are really talking about a format for a telephone number in the U.S. I
don't believe the CCTS spec speaks to this, so we'll need to brainstorm.
My preference would be to place the qualifier closest to where it
applies - i.e. before "Telephone" rather than before "Home" in this
case.
Thoughts?
