Hi.

Schematron can create a validation report that collects validation errors  
and reports them in XML format.  You might at least look into that as a  
basis for the syntax you ultimately use to represent the validation  
information.  You don't say what method you will use to validate instances  
but if you do validate using schematron then using the schematron XML  
format would be a no-brainer.

Thinking about it now, it seems like validation method you use is really  
going to drive this decision, because the validation information you can  
generate using each of DTD, XSD, relax and schematron fails to overlap in  
important ways.
