Hit send too fast, that's only part of the relevant schema, the rest (which
uses the above) is:

   <!-- Taking into account everything else in the record,
        the results of applying DMARC. -->
   <xs:complexType name="PolicyEvaluatedType">
     <xs:sequence>

*       <xs:element name="disposition" type="DispositionType"/>*
 <xs:element name="dkim" type="DMARCResultType"/>
       <xs:element name="spf" type="DMARCResultType"/>
       <xs:element name="reason" type="PolicyOverrideReason"
                   minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
     </xs:sequence>
   </xs:complexType>
