properties

Some properties (e.g. GeologicFeature/targetLink, 
GeologicFeature/classifier) are not nillable but have an optional 
nilReason attribute (because they use the predefined 
gml:AssociationAttributeGroup to allow by reference property specification 
and this inculdes the nil reason attribute as well).

I may be being over fussy but I would prefer the Schema not to have a 
nilReason attribute if the property is defined as not nillable.

Agree?

Marcus
