I don't think either that sounding like STD or XTC is worth worrying about. In rethinking, though. I'm not sure that what we will eventually accomplish will be strictly a "type definition." For instance one of these schemata might only define attributes. A new attribute is not a "type" -- it is just an attribute. There are many things that are misnamed in the world, and this only impedes their progress slightly, but it is still worth thinking about. I don't think that XSchema is too inclusive. I understand that we are not making the schema language to end all schema languages, but SAX was not the simple API for XML to end all simple APIs for XML, and XLink is not the linking language for XML to end all linking languages for XML. How about the "XML Structure Definition" specification that describes how to make "Structure Definition Documents." Paul Prescod - http://itrc.uwaterloo.ca/~papresco "You have the wrong number." "Eh?
