Even more surprising and unfortunate is that neither XMLSpy nor Stylus are available other than on the Windows platform. <oxygen/> is the only schema editor (and then no visualization functionality) available cross-platform. I'm also surprised that no one's written schema diagramming software for GraphViz or similar. Have you thought about getting the schemas into some sort of central, version-controlled repository with some kind of continuous "build" and a christmas tree? I bet that XMLSpy supports WebDAV(?), so you could probably use subversion. It certainly sounds like you're doing enough heavy lifting to make some additional infrastructure worthwhile. -- Paul Brown http://blogs.fivesight.com/pbblog/
