Strictly speaking, the attributes are not defined in the profile (i.e., with 0.FDO/Attribute), but in their own FDO Record. Possible solution: use "specify"

The value of this <a>attribute</a> is a PID of the <a>attribute definition</a>.

Please use <a>PID</a>

It can be repeated to add multiple <a>attribute definitions</a>.
The cardinality of the <a>attribute definitions</a> MUST be respected in the <a>FDOs</a>.
When not using <a>profile extension</a>, <a><em>0.FDO/Attribute</em></a> MUST be defined with at least the attributes from the <a>root profile</a>.
Other <a>attribute definitionss</a> can be added by adding more <a><em>0.FDO/Attribute</em></a> <a>tuples</a> with the <a>PID</a> of the desired <a>attribute definition</a>.
When not using <a>profile extension</a>, <a><em>0.FDO/Attribute</em></a> MUST be defined
with at least the attributes the <a>root profile</a> specifies.

an <a>FDO profile</a>

I think you mean the profiles and and not the FDOs using it, right?

Alternatively, it may specify these minimum attributes directly using <a><em>0.FDO/Attribute</em></a>.
