                         <xs:attribute name="Max"

                         <xs:attribute name="CheckDigits"

                    </xs:complexType>

                         <xs:attribute name="Encoding"

                         <xs:attribute name="Length"
                              type="xs:unsignedInt" use="required"/>
                         <xs:attribute name="CheckDigits"
                              type="xs:boolean" default="false"/>
                    </xs:complexType>
               </xs:element>
               <xs:element name="Extensions"
                    type="pskc:ExtensionsType" minOccurs="0"
                    maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
          </xs:choice>
     </xs:complexType>

It should say:

     <xs:complexType name="AlgorithmParametersType">
          <xs:sequence>

          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>

Notes:

The AlgorithmParameter should have a sequqnce of subelements not a choice as for Challenge/Response algorithms it MUST be possible to define both the ChallengeFormat and the Response Format at the same time. Currently the schema uses <xs:choice> which allows either <ChallengeFormat> or <ResponseFormat> but not both.
This correction will bring it in line with intended description in Section 4.3.4
