Thanks for this updated fee extension draft.
While preparing its implementation, I noticed the following which may be
an error in the spec.

The draft's text suggests that the "name" attribute for the <fee:command>
element in a <fee:check> is mandatory, but this is not reflected in the
XSD (the attribute is left optional in the "commandType" complex type
declaration).

Unless the intention was to offer a "wildcard", enabling a client to
check all supported command without listing them, this attribute should
probably be marked as required.

Best regards,

Thomas Corte
