In section 3.14.2 of http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/ it says "{any

add my own attributes? For example can I do this:
<simpleType name="myName" xyz:myattribute="something">

</simpleType>
Exactly!

I was not aware of this feature before. In fact, if the above is
true, it is not possible to validate an XML Schema (which itself is an
XML document) against a DTD because there is no way to specify in a DTD
that an element can have any attributes.
The obvious question is why would you need attributes outside the
XML Schema specification ? If you extend an XML Schema in such a way
then you defeat one of the main goals of XML, which is to be portable
(only you tool will understand the custom attributes)
