Hi, Sean,

Many thanks for the review; I've incorporated these points into a working -04 revision. A couple of questions or points, inline...

A.8 and A.9 are weird, in that they're appendices within an appendix. Examples are definitely informative. The XML schema should be normative; however, technically, I would presume it's the schema that goes into the IANA registry (which, of course, in the normal case, gets taken from the schema in Appendix A of an extension document) which is normative.

It would reduce potential confusion; we've already had appsarea feedback on this example. I did spend a little time trying to come up with an enumeration extension that was clearly ridiculous but still realistic enough to be properly illustrative; this is as close as I got. Not sure where we'd wedge a lottery number into one of the enumerations. I'm inclined to leave this as it is for now...

Best regards,
