It's the "etc", that I wonder about - it seems that the focus of XSchema is being narrowed to a point where some "etc" will not be able to make use of XSchema without violating the intent. The problem is that the intent may not have accounted for a slightly different processing model - might the same application require multiple XSchema for different tasks, or would you design them more loosely to reduce redundancy? This would seem to be a subjective call and a natural for protracted discussion. > I don't understand what this has to do with working on the individual fragments > of a document. It's not so much about working on fragments as it is ensuring that current, common data handling processes aren't locked out of using XSchema because we aren't looking around enough. The narrower the range of uses XSchema is appropriate for, the less chance of it succeeding. -- Regards Marcus Carr email: mrc@a... _______________________________________________________________ Allette Systems (Australia) email: info@a...
