Sorry, I meant the more recent ASN.1/XML tools. I know that list, it's where 
I've been fishing for tools before (you and that site come up first for that on 
Google).

I was more specifically looking for X.694 tools to see how it worked on some 
schemas I have.

I tried that one but it fails for most of my XSD. It also seems to always 
require ASN1-CHARACTER-MODULE.asn which is huge and appears to generate vast 
amounts of unused code.

I understand that this is a closed process and that no documents are made 
available for public review, but my concern is that it seems likely that there 
will be ASN.1 related discussions at the workshop, and that their quality will 
be difficult to assess without the latest spec and test tools to play with :-/
