RE: A good case for namespace URIs
Title: A good case for namespace URIs
Worse,
actually. Just about all of them use that namespace. Unfortunately, none of them
have it as targetNamespace.
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=govtalk+schema
This is a good namespace URI, too ;).
From there you promptly get to http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/interoperability/draftschema.asp , and from there to hundreds of pages of
schema documentation.
... none of which appears to
use the namespace http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CR/core (unless you strike lucky). Which rather proves John
Anderson's original point.

I've just hit a problem which would seem to
present a very strong case for *using* namespace URIs (maybe even with
RDDL), at least until some formal spec comes along. And I'd be pretty
confident I'm not the only one.
I am trying to develop some stuff against the
UK govtalk schemas, and they reference elements and attributes in the http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CR/core
namespace.
Has anybody ever tried to find a schema
describing this namespace on the govtalk website? I spent hours yesterday.
Wouldn't it have been really, really nice if that URI didn't result in a
404. It would also be quite easy, wouldn't even have to be a RDDL document
- since everything is done in XSD, just the schema would have been quite
satisfactory. In fact, even a not-valid-XML text document with all
possible permutations of that namespace (if they do the XHTML thing) would
have been a good start.
I know there are all kinds of sound academic
arguments for not doing this, but in the meantime they prohibit a simple
and very practical aid to my work.
BTW, if anyone does have a copy of this schema,
could they please send it to me?
