Karin,

Eric van der Vlist wrote a great article about this in Dec. 2001, "Comparing
XML Schema Languages".
http://xml.com/pub/a/2001/12/12/schemacompare.html
If anything, support for RELAX NG has improved considerably since then.

Elliotte Rusty Harold's "Effective XML" book has a useful section on
pros/cons on various schema languages.
http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/effectivexml/

My own schema resources page on WDVL.com has lots of useful links although
it hasn't been updated in well over a year.

and also

chema.html
