Section 2.2.2 says:
2.2.2. 'usage-rules' Element 'retransmission-allowed': When the value of this element is 'no', the Recipient of this Location Object is not permitted to share the enclosed Location Information, or the object as a whole, with other parties. When the value of this element is 'yes', snip.. 'retention-expires': This field specifies an absolute date at which time the Recipient is no longer permitted to possess the location snip.. 'ruleset-reference': This field contains a URI that indicates where a fuller ruleset of policies, related to this object, can be found.
Notes:
Definitions do not match with the XML schema :
* boolean according to XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition is either 'true', 'false', '0', or '1'
<xs:element name="retransmission-allowed" type="xs:boolean"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
* Element names do not match
<xs:element name="retention-expiry" type="xs:dateTime"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="external-ruleset" type="xs:anyURI"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>

Section 2.3 says:
<presence xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf" xmlns:gp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10" xmlns:cl=" urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10:civicLoc" entity="pres:geotarget@example.com"> ... <gp:usage-rules> <gp:retransmission-allowed>no</gp:retransmission-allowed> <gp:retention-expiry>2003-06-23T04:57:29Z</gp:retention-expiry> </gp:usage-rules>
It should say:
<presence xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf" xmlns:gp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10" xmlns:gbp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10:basicPolicy" xmlns:cl="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10:civicLoc" entity="pres:geotarget@example.com"> ... <gp:usage-rules> <gbp:retransmission-allowed>no</gbp:retransmission-allowed> <gbp:retention-expiry>2003-06-23T04:57:29Z</gbp:retention-expiry> </gp:usage-rules>
Notes:
This applies to both examples in Section 2.3. The use of the "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10" namespace for the retransmission-allowed and retention-expiry elements is incorrect. These elements are defined in the "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10:basicPolicy" namespace.
This does not manifest in an error in parsers due to the allowance for extensions. The XML schema <any> rule with processContents="lax" permits unknown elements, as these are. A schema-aware processor would not reliably detect these elements, potentially leading to them being ignored.
To reveal this problem, validate these examples against a schema with processContents="strict" on all <any> elements.
