UBL Code List Value Validation Methodology version 0.7 Draft 1

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

Fellow XML-Dev list members,

Further to our discussions earlier this year 
regarding code lists (controlled vocabularies of 
lists of coded values), draft 1 of version 0.7 of 
the Universal Business Language Code List Value 
Validation Methodology can be found here:

   http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=20313

It was with this version of the methodology and 
associated files that I prepared the 
defaultCodeList.xsl component in the val/ 
subdirectory of UBL Public Review Draft 3.  This 
component is used in the second phase of a 
two-phase validation approach to the validation 
of UBL XML instances, where the first phase is 
structural validation using XSD and the second 
phase is coded value validation using ISO/IEC 
19757-3 Schematron as implemented in XSLT.

This approach is documented at:

   http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/prd3-UBL-2.0/UBL-index-2.0.html#CODELISTS

I look forward to any comments or questions 
anyone may have regarding the approaches we are 
taking in the UBL project for code lists.

Thanks!

. . . . . . . . . . . Ken
