Hi, Dieter,

Thanks for discovering these issues in the schema.
I concur all of your findings.

Those issues have been hidden inside the schema for a while.  It sure
feels good to kill those bugs in schema. :-)

One technical note: for item (5), I will use schema extension to fix
this problem. tOnEvent will extend from tOnMessage.

Thanks!!!


Regards,
Alex Yiu
