Summary

Please add the xsd namespace to the namespace declaration in the validation examples. This makes testing and development much easier because tools will recognize the namespace.

version="4-3" xmlns="http://www.fpml.org/2007/FpML-4-3" xmlns:fpml="http://www.fpml.org/2007/FpML-4-3" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.fpml.org/2007/FpML-4-3 fpml-main-4-3.xsd http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig# xmldsig-core-schema.xsd" xsi:type="RequestTradeConfirmation" ...

It is the line xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" that needs adding to the examples.

Take a look at ln-8 as an example. This needs the xs namespace defined to make sense. " ...startDate satisfies $startDate - xs:dayTimeDuration("P1D")... "

Irina fixed exactly the same in issue #451 for the FpML namespace declaration.

The schema namespace should also be defined in the namespaces section of the rules.

I don't mind whether it is xs or xsd as long as it is consistent.

    Agreed at the VWG today for Marc to evaluate writing an XSLT script to do this.
