     [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OBIX-1?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

William Cox updated OBIX-1:
---------------------------

    Fix Version/s: OBIX 1.1 WD34
       Resolution: 
Do not include xsd:.  The text referring to Figure 4-1 should be similar to  "All diagrams are non-normative.

The normative definition of OBIX 1.1 is in XML schema. Diagram <DiagramNumber> is a UML representation of the OBIX class structure with some liberties taken in the types. XML schema attributes in the OBIX schemas are optional with cardinality [0..1]; we have illustrated those with initial values as having cardinality [1..1]. ".

> The UML diagram is generally conformant UML but leaves significant questions for the reader.
> (1) what are the base types? The text suggests but does not state that the underlying types are XML Schema (xsd) types. This should be clarified in the text.
> (2) The UML diagram does not follow the schema; they are not synchronized. The final 1.1 spec must have consistent use of types and implied types in the schemas. See also notes on schemas by others.
> (3) The use of "val" seems odd in UML expression; the apparent metaindication of "<type>" is not standard UML and should be corrected.
