ERRATA: Count Tag should contain a quoted value
Reporter: michael.delgaudio@mris.net
RETS Version: 1.0.0
RETS Document: Real Estate Transaction Standard 1.0

Location(s): Section 7.6

Description:
The Standard and XML validation rules are in conflict in Section 7.6, specifically the COUNT tag. The Standard indicates that the count tag should be represented as follows:
<COUNT Records=123/>
However XML requires that attributes be quoted as in:
<COUNT Records="123"/>

Proposed Solution:
The Standard document, and DTD should be updated to reflect this. Currently, COUNT does not appear in the RETS-wg supplied DTD. The tag should be added to the DTD.
