Re: [xml-dev] Missing character in PDF of Schematron 2nd edition?
In the latest version of the ISO/IEC specification currently being 
voted on this text reads:

   "prefix the name with the character $."

... in Annexes C, H and J.  The dollar sign remains absent in Annexes 
L and M and so warrants an editorial comment.

Well spotted!
