Hello, boys and girls!

XTC, LSD, and XSD are things to avoid if you value your sanity.  Trip
out at your peril!

[I must be a closet marketeer.]

I too couldn't finish reading the XSD spec.  Its not exactly rocket
science and it is not supposed to be for everyone, but I couldn't get
over the feeling that the complexity of the solution didn't match the
complexity of the problem.  Why the hell do I have to keep this bundle
of bull product in my head when I have a perfectly reasonable
alternative?

What organizations like W3C have to learn is a simple concept called
UNDO.

Best,

Don
