Hello,

I am new to this list and have read about you mentioning RELAX and TRX.
Why do I need these standards? On the RELAX-webpage is written:

Compared with DTD(Document Type Definition), RELAX has new features:

                            RELAX grammars are represented in the XML instance syntax 
                            RELAX borrows rich datatypes of XML Schema Part 2 
                            RELAX is namespace-aware 

Is it not all included in Schemas as well?
