Well at least, I can answer that last question: if you have a look at 
www.iso.org, you will find that ISO/IEC 19757-8:2008 Information 
technology -- Document Schema Definition Languages (DSDL) -- Part 8: 
Document Semantics Renaming Language (DSRL) has been standardised as 
ISO/IEC standard in 12/2008 (Stage 60.06: International Standard 
published) -- which unfortunately means that it is not freely available 
in this case.

Compared to the Final Committee Draft (FCD) available at 
http://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/sc34/open/0894.pdf you should assume at 
least some changes in the Final Standard.

Best,

Maik Stührenberg
