Or rather friendly :-) ...

I don't think that type assignment is fiendish by itself. What is
fiendish IMO is to impose its constraints on people who do not care
about type assignment (and in a lesser attempt, to impose more
constraints than absolutely necessary to people who care about type
assignment).

However, my purpose here is rather to show that people needing type
assignment can use Relax NG than to promote type assignment by itself.

Thanks
