Use one of the following categories:
F (Critical correction)
A (corresponds to a correction in an earlier
release)
B (Addition of feature),
C (Functional modification of feature)
D (Editorial modification)
Detailed explanations of the above categories can
be found in the TC Policies and Procedures.


Reason for change:

 The schema wfs-util.xsd (found at http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wsdl/wfsutil.xsd) has a critical error. The current schemaLocation for namespace
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema is “./xmlschema.xsd”. No such file exists,
making this schema invalid

Summary of change:  Change the value of schemaLocation from “./xmlschema.xsd” to
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd.
Consequences if
not approved:

 The wfs-util.xsd schema will be unable to load the xsd namespace, invalidating
the schema and all schemas which import it.
