Thinking about this a little more -- It is unclear where the convergence of schema languages will be -- i think it mostly will be that there will be these 2 classes of schema languages -- one defined by XML Schema and other defined by RELAX and TREX. Personally I am *very* biased towards RELAX, and think these schema languages are very important. From what I see, I think there are quite a significant amount of developers and researchers who disagree with XML Schema. I think it will be *very* unfortunate if other work of W3C also starts to make XML Schema a core part. I think the XML Schema WG should probably be more aware of this situation, and give the proper message to other WGs. <warning>speaking for himself only</warning> regards - murali.
