Agenda:

Escape Schemes - Alan has mailed latest refinement

Validation ranges - need to decide whether to allow restricted use of 
xs:union to model this **

Specialized annotations - need to decide whether to **
        a) drop specialized annotations altogether, 
        b) use the scheme below, which does not affect scoping in any way 
but which makes it clear what is allowed where

        Specialized annotations on xsd objects only, dfdl:format on 
scoping constructs only
                dfdl;defineFormat  =>  dfdl:format 
                xs:complexType => dfdl:format 
                xs:sequence => dfdl:sequence 
                xs:choice => dfdl:choice 
                xs:group ref => dfdl:group
                xs:element or xs:element ref => dfdl:element 
                xs:any => dfdl:any 
                xs:simpleType => dfdl:simpleType 

Exclusion lists - XML Schema only allows inclusion list of enumerations, 
does DFDL need to support exclusion list of enumerations

Consuming extraneous data that occurs at the end of the stream

'Floating' definitions - a known element the position of which can be 
anywhere in a sequence of other elements - is this something DFDL needs to 
support
