[tei-council] rng:group but no rng:choice

31 May 2015

      I just stumbled across the content model of climate (and there are more …) which looks like
<content>
 <rng:group>
   <rng:zeroOrMore>
     <rng:ref name="model.headLike"/>
   </rng:zeroOrMore>
   <rng:choice>
     <rng:group>
       <rng:oneOrMore>
         <rng:ref name="model.pLike"/>
       </rng:oneOrMore>
     </rng:group>
     <rng:group>
       <rng:oneOrMore>
         <rng:ref name="model.labelLike"/>
       </rng:oneOrMore>
     </rng:group>
   </rng:choice>
   <rng:zeroOrMore>
     <rng:choice>
       <rng:ref name="model.noteLike"/>
       <rng:ref name="model.biblLike"/>
     </rng:choice>
   </rng:zeroOrMore>
   <rng:zeroOrMore>
     <rng:ref name="climate"/>
   </rng:zeroOrMore>
 </rng:group>
</content>

My question is: is there some magic to the surrounding rng:group or could that be deleted? (I don’t intend to do so but was just wondering …)

Best
Peter
