No, because there always has to be at least one status value.  It should be
changed to remove the word "OPTIONAL".  The schema should be changed to
remove minOccurs="0".

Thanks for the clarification. If at least one status tag should exist, then
the example on page 15 as well as the domain_info_unauth_result.xml in the
example package need to be fixed to include at least one status value.

Re-read section 2.3.  There may be 17 values defined, but they can't all be
present at the same time.

<HL>
You are right, not all 17 values are allowed to co-exist at the same time
according to section 2.3. But I am having difficulty understanding how 12 is
derived from the complex rules in section 2.3. Could you explain that to me?
Thanks!
