1. General The document should contain more examples, particularly when it comes to section C.6 (Conformance) illustrating the 3 types of conformance. There could be also information about non-conformance messages and actions.

2. Editorial On page 5, there are two XML examples that seem to be non-well-formed; For the elements zeroOrMore , do we have two occurences here of empty elements or should the last occurence of the element in each example be rather an end-tag? One way or the other, the syntax is incorrect as stated.
