1: The namespace should comply with that from the other parts of ISO/IEC 19757, especially Part 2.

Not Accepted: Part 8 namespace aligns with all other namespaces, except Part 2, which preceded the decision to use permanent URLs for namespace resolution.

1.1: Clarify the scope

Accept: Overriding of existing values will not be permitted in DSRL, but default content of both attributes and elements can be defined to allow the addition of missing markup

Consider possibility of mapping attributes to elements (or vice versa, if it does not involve contradictions in terms of context, especially if elements contain mixed content).

1.2: Introduce a processing model

Accept: Describe the two phase processing model and note that it can be implemented using XSLT 2.0 as described in the informative annex.

1.3: Drop entity definitions

This is no longer a requirement following the response to 1.2.

2.1 Allow value-maps for elements

Accept: This requires a check first to ensure that there are no child elements or PIs within the text. Then a map of the white-space normalized text content of the element can be created.

2.2 Introduce precedence rules

Not Accepted: The existing text of 6.1 includes the statement "No two dsrl:element-map elements shall have the same contents for both their dsrl:within element and their dsrl:from element." and "No two dsrl:attribute-map elements within a given dsrl:element-map may have the same value for their dsrl:from element."

2.3 Use datatypes in schemas

Accept: Add normative reference to XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes

2.4 Name token groups

Approve. Called an Enumeration in XML.

2.5 Drop default values and default contents

Not Accepted: See response to 1.1. Overriding will be dropped.
