xs:group with "name" attribute makes it a model group, that is why
it cannot have min/maxOccurs. To make sense to have occurrence
properties, it has to be a particle, which you can achieve by xs:group
with "ref" attribute that references a named model group. xs:group
with "ref" attribute should be able to carry min/maxOccurs attributes
on them.

Subject: Re: [xml-dev] xs:group/xs:choice[@minOccurs | @maxOccurs]
This email will have better response on the xmlschema-dev mailing list
(xmlschema-dev@w3.org) but I'll give it a go:
xs:group's limit the min/max occurs of not just choice nodes, but all
compositors (i.e. choice, sequence and all nodes). The occurence options are
controlled by the entire group, not the individual nodes within the group.
Why this is, I'm not entirely certain, anyone else want to field the
reasoning behind this?
