Dear Paul:
The W3C XML Schema Working Group has spent the last several months
working through the comments received from the public on the last-call
draft of the XML Schema specification.  We thank you for the comments
made by the XML Query WG on our specification during our last-call
comment period, and want to make sure you know that all comments
received during the last-call comment period have been recorded in our
last-call issues list
(https://www.w3.org/2000/05/12-xml-schema-lcissues).
Among other issues, the Query WG raised the point registered as issue
LC-204, which suggests that the XML Schema and XML Query WGs plan to
work together on the problem of defining type coercion rules for
operations on typed values.
As I reported to you at the end of June, the XML Schema WG has greeted
this proposal with approval and that several WG members have
volunteered to serve on a joint task force to work on this issue.

It would be helpful to us to know whether you are satisfied with the
decision taken by the WG on this issue, or wish your dissent from the
WG's decision to be recorded for consideration by the Director.
With best wishes,
- C. M. Sperberg-McQueen
