@xlink:arcrole

Xlink: Arc role

Remove xlink namespace and attribute @xlink:arcrole. Do not replace with @arcrole.

Agreed in EAC-CPF and in EAD team to remove this attribute to simplify the schema, cf Berlin meeting:

Use @linkrole, @linktitle, and @href, from former XLink attributes and drop @actuate, @arcrole, @show.

Tested as part of Schema Team's schema testing:

• @xlink:arcrole is not available anymore in the draft schema for EAC-CPF 2.0, though with allowing attributes of any namespace one could of course still use @xlink:arcrole along with other XLink attributes if wanted

The above applies to both schemas, RNG and XSD.

The attribute is ready.
