Category: Issue for edition 2 of this part

Issue

The sets in Regular Expressions shall not include commas.

For example the value ",0,F" is valid for pattern "[0-9,A-F]{4}".

The value: "0,-,F-0E-7E-A0-,," is valid for MAC Address now.

Proposal

Remove commas from Regular Expressions only for next revisions. Names of object according to older versions of the norm may include commas for example in names of objects (smvID, rptID etc.).

Replace also:
<xs:pattern value="[0-9,&#44;]+"/>
with
<xs:pattern value="[,0-9]+"/>
