If you want to use a schema only for validation, then it doesn't matter if many of the constructs within it are unnamed. If you want to use the schema as a repository of type definitions accessible throughout the system, then it's a good idea to give more of the components global names so that they can be referenced from outside. That's not so much about bending your schema to fit some other technology, it's about maximising its value as a reusable asset. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
