------- Comment #6 from mob at icess.ucsb.edu  2008-10-23 14:01 -------
These 2 types were not identical: res:distributionType included a choice of
connectionDefinition independent of the one allowed under connection.
physicalDistributionType did not allow this choice (all connectionDefinitions
are children of connection) See text from cvs log at the bottom of this note.
So the current fix will not work.

Modified DistributionType in resource and physical to accomodate McCartney's
changes to simplify connections.  His changes were made, except that the
reference was retained in connection so they can be re-used, and the
connectionDefinition can still be used in eml-resource independently of
a connection so that users can define connections outside of an actual
connection.  In eml-physical, this is not possible. A new ComplexType
was created to accomplish this called PhysicalDistributionType.
