Unfortunately, XML Schema's document binding mechanism doesn't include any role for public identifiers. While in some, if not most cases, you could associate one schema with a particular namespace. It doesn't hold in general. For example, XHTML - 1 namespace, 3 distinct DTDs/schemas. Or a application's namespace could remain constant through several versions (as it should as long as the meaning of any names do not change), but have different schemas for each version. I'm going to try to get all my thoughts together in a comment this week, but it seems essential that any association with cached schema resources be done on the basis of a public identifier, not on namespace. *************************************************************************** This is xml-dev, the mailing list for XML developers.
