numbering. Typically, appendixes are lettered rather than
numbered, and appear in the table of contents.

<para>
<sgmltag class='attribute'>Label</sgmltag> specifies an identifying string for presentation purposes. The second <sgmltag>Appendix</sgmltag> might be
labeled <quote>B</quote>, for example.
</para>
<para>
Generally, an explicit <sgmltag class='attribute'>Label</sgmltag> attribute is
used only if the processing system is incapable of generating the label
automatically. If present, the <sgmltag class='attribute'>Label</sgmltag>
is normative; it will used even
if the processing system is capable of automatic labelling.

<listitem>
<para>
<sgmltag class="attribute">Status</sgmltag> identifies the editorial or publication
status of the <sgmltag>Appendix</sgmltag>.
</para>
<para>
Publication status might be used to control formatting (for example,
printing a <quote>draft</quote> watermark on drafts) or processing (perhaps
a document with a status of <quote>final</quote> should not include any
components that are not final).
