This is a slightly delayed announcement for "The Schematron", which is a tree-pattern schema language built on top of XSL. (David Carlisle from this list has contributed an error browser, and there are other plans in the works.) Example of error browser: http://www.ascc.net/xml/resource/schematron/DavidCarlisle/schematron-frame.h tml Schematron home page: http://www.ascc.net/xml/resource/schematron/schematron.html The basic idea is to piggyback on top of XPath. I think the resulting language is pretty good: trivial to implement, easy to use, and very powerful. It allows validation of structures that cannot be found using regular grammar-based schema languages. It is an open source project; I am in particular trying to get a language that is useful for "overlaying" schemas (e.g. for best practise, variants and debugging) rather than "defining" schemas (which XML Schemas is addressing.) Anyone who wants to contribute some code or ideas to this, please feel free. Rick Jelliffe Computing Centre Academia Sinica XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
