It is available in a branch and it should be published in the new extensions page http://www.fpml.org/documents/extensions.html

We would need a tool in the build system to check whether and where circular includes are present at the Schemata. Circular includes are explicitly allowed in the W3C Schema 1.0 spec but they cause many problems to tools.

XML Spy is complianing that dec:deprecatedReason is invalid, and I then had to comment out the Forward value to make the schema XML valid. I do not know at this point if it is an issue with the tool, and would be interested in your view on this. DEPRECATED value which will be removed in … Continued

All, We have a simple type that we use for exercise times called HourMinuteTime A type defining a time specified in hh:mm:ss format where the second component must be ’00’, e.g. 11am would be represented as 11:00:00. Shouldnt this type allow the support for time offsets (i.e. +00:00)?

The validation rules bp-1 is missing examples. Please add at least one valid and one invalid example.

Adding a dec namespace declaration on the enumeration value “Forward” in the “OptionTypeEnum” is invalid because it contradicts the following XSD rule: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#coss-particle The solution is to move all the “dec” namespace declarations to the xsd:schema element of each FpML document.

the FpML annotations are prefixed with “dec”. Everything in the schema is declared, so as a prefix it is not distinctive. Ecore traditionally uses the prefix “ecore”. FpML should follow suit and use the prefix “fpml” in the schema.

The FpML annotation namespace is “http://www.fpml.org/declaration”. The problem with this is everything in a schema is declarative, so what does calling it a “declaration” distinguish it from? Why not just call it: “http://www.fpml.org/annotation”, or “http://www.fpml.org/arch/2007”, or “http://www.fpml.org/arch/2007/FpML” By comparison the Ecore namespace is “http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore” xmlns:dec=”http://www.fpml.org/declaration” value=”Forward” dec:deprecated=”true” dec:deprecatedReason=”The optionType is to be used if the … Continued

Add a rule in the architecture specification that bans circular includes of schemas. Certain editors persistently add these back in just before each release!
