delimiter-precedes-last

Simon,

Why aren’t the attribute value options here just an xsd:boolean datatype?

   attribute delimiter-precedes-last { "always" | "never" }?,

Shall we still say we’re freezing the schema on the 31st? I still have
to check some of the questions John raised. I think, for example, that
the list grouping hasn’t made it over to the new schema.

datatype?

Because the behavior is different if the attribute is unspecified.

Without attribute (should be a value option, but I don’t know what to
call it):
Bob and Alice
Bob, Alice, and Jim

With “always”:
Bob, and Alice
Bob, Alice, and Jim

With “never”:
Bob and Alice
Bob, Alice and Jim

Shall we still say we’re freezing the schema on the 31st? I still have

Sounds fine to me.

Simon
