Hi,

I just tried to test your cases with Xerces-J 2.7.1 and XSV 2.10.

Xerces and XSV: no errors.

TestEventPayload looks exactly the same as the definition of the
xs:anyType; so I would expect to be able to restrict this
definition in _any_ way, without bothering to think about the rules
here.

XSV: no errors

Xerces:
aussie-2.xsd:13,51: (Error) rcase-Recurse.2: There is not a complete
functional mapping between the particles.
aussie-2.xsd:13,51: (Error) derivation-ok-restriction.5.4.2: Error for
type 'RestTestEventPayload'.  The particle of the type is not a valid
restriction of the particle of the base.

Although TestEventPayload actually still defines an equal content
model at the FSA level, it seems to hit the particle mapping
constraint at the component level. Is this intended by the spec?
