A start may be Kohsuke Kawaguchi's XML Schema DOs and
DONT'S available at
http://kohsuke.org/xmlschema/XMLSchemaDOsAndDONTs.html

I disagree with some of his conclusions and believe he
comes down unnecessarily harshly on W3C XML Schema
(after all he authored a competitor) but it's still
probably the only thing I've seen which closest fits
your needs. 

The XML Schema best practices page at 

  http://www.xfront.com/BestPracticesHomepage.html

is also good guide to working with schemas.
