DDS11 — (T#23) Syntax of partition strings

In section 2.1.3 (Supported Qos) the table describes that specifying the PARTITION QOS by an empty sized sequence implies all partitions. However the default partition is specified to be exactly one partition with the name "". Any partition should be specified by means of wildcards. It is unclear how the default partition and wildcards can be used at publisher and subscriber side.
Resolution:
Concerning default partitions:
The default value for PartitionQosPolicy is an empty sequence of names.The empty sequence of partition names is equivalent to a single partition name, the empty string.
Concerning wildcards:
"Wildcards" refers to the regular expression language defined by the POSIX fnmatch API (1003.2-1992 section B.6). Either Publisher or Subscriber may include regular expressions in partition names, but no two names that both contain wildcards will ever be considered to match. This means that although regular expressions may be used both at publisher as well as subscriber side, the service will not try to match 2 regular expressions (between publishers and subscribers).
Revised Text:

Change the PARTITION row of the table in 2.1.3 to state that the default value is an empty sequence, which is equivalent to a sequence containing the single element "".
