Re: How long before services sending/receiving XML mightneed r

Hi Stephen, this is only an aspect, not more: validation. JSON Schema is powerful, but I think there are three disadvantages: first, it is not yet a finalized standard; second, its implementations are not yet as mature as XSD validators; third, JSON Schema is not so much a document modeling language as XSD is; JSON Schemas can be written in ways that make it difficult, if not impossible, to derive a structure model (or grammar) of valid documents. (Sounds paradoxical, but isn't: the schema maps any document to valid or not, but does not clearly imply the structure of a valid document.)

With kind regards,

Hans-Jürgen
