Hi Folks,

What a wonderful time we live in, as we wrestle with ways to represent data. Data is important:

	The real world is represented by data. [1]

XML Schemas and a RelaxNG schemas are grammars. Grammars are important:

	The grammar in a sense represents our
	understanding of the real world: the better
	a grammar we can give for, say, the 
	movement of bees, the deeper our
	understanding of them. [2]
