This has been mentioned before, but here you go.

Before long, James Clark's Trang [1] will support RELAX NG to XML Schema
translations. Then you will be able to translate:

RELAX NG XML syntax => DTD (available now)
RELAX NG compact syntax => RELAX NG XML syntax (available now)
RELAX NG XML syntax => XML Schema (on the way)
RELAX NG compact syntax => XML Schema (on the way)

In addition, with DTDinst [2], you can translate DTDs to RELAX NG XML syntax
or a DTDinst-specific format.

If you like DTDs, with these tools, you will be able to translate DTDs to
RELAX NG or XML Schema. Or if you prefer RELAX NG, you will be able to
translate RELAX NG schemata to DTDs or XML Schema.

I'm sticking with RELAX NG.

Mike
