[System]

I didn't comment on this earlier because I was not part of recent namespace discussion. My preference is to make this change and to add an explicit namespace declaration to the reusable types schema, which is an easy manual edit to the schemas. The downside of this approach is that a UBL instance document will *always* need to have some of the elements prefixed with a namespace. You can default either the main document schema (e.g. Order) or the reusable types schema, but not both. As I recall from discussions a year ago, there was concern that users would like to have a document instance without any tag prefixes. I believe the current schemas would allow this, because the reusable types are included into each document schema (e.g. Order) and by implication into its namespace, then the entire document can use the default null namespace prefix. Is this just a short-term fix, and we will ultimatley have multiple namespaces in each document instance? -- Dave
