RE: [xml-dev] Ambiguous Content Model

Hi all.

I have been lurking for a while, but this is my first post. I appologize in
advance for any etiquite violations!

It appears to me that (A,B)*, A? isn't impossible. Wouldn't this lead to the
following list of possible child elements?

	(no children)
	A
	A, B
	A, B, A
	A, B, A, B
	A, B, A, B, A
	...

This pattern is specified by (A,B)* | (A, (B, A)*).

I thought it was me but anyway, this is not a difficult one; this is an
impossible one.
