Attributes

Label

Label specifies an identifying string for presentation purposes. The second Appendix might be labeled "B", for example.

Generally, an explicit Label attribute is used only if the processing system is incapable of generating the label automatically. If present, the Label is normative; it will used even if the processing system is capable of automatic labelling.

Status

Status identifies the editorial or publication status of the Appendix.

Publication status might be used to control formatting (for example, printing a "draft" watermark on drafts) or processing (perhaps a document with a status of "final" should not include any components that are not final).
