This should work:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified">
	<xsd:element name="root">
		<xsd:complexType>
			<xsd:sequence>
				<xsd:any processContents="lax"/>
			</xsd:sequence>
		</xsd:complexType>
	</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

- if all the possible elements that can be declared inside the root
element are in fact defined somewhere in the schema, then you can have
processContents="strict" (or leave it out, since that is the default)

Francis.
