[ebxml-dev] Discrepancy between ebRIM v.2.1 schema and specs

[Wes Kubo <wkubo@galdosinc.com>]

Hi all.

I was looking through version 2.1 of the ebRIM, both the rim.xsd schema
(http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.1/schema/rim.xsd)
and the specs
(https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.1/specs/ebrim_v2.1
.pdf). On the UML diagram on page 11 of the spec, it would seem that a
ServiceBinding is required to have at least ONE SpecificationLink
(multiplicity 1..*). However, according to the schema,

<schemaSnippet>

    <complexType name="ServiceBindingType">
        <complexContent>
            <extension base="tns:RegistryObjectType">
                <sequence>
                    <element ref="tns:SpecificationLink" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded" />
                </sequence>
            <attribute name="service" use="optional" type="IDREF" />
            <attribute name="accessURI" use="optional" type="anyURI" />
            <attribute name="targetBinding" use="optional" type="IDREF" />
            </extension>
        </complexContent>
      </complexType>

</schemaSnippet>

the SpecificationLink is not required. Am I reading something wrong, or is
there an error in either the spec or schema?

Thanks.

Wes
