Hi, I am working with some people who want to publish performance monitoring information in a standard exchange format. The details of the common vocabulary are still being discussed, but even at this early stage there are some technical questions about XML's use for such a task. One question is: assuming that the "things" being monitored, as well as the "characteristics" of the things being recorded, can change over time, is there a good way to dynamically add (even subtract) bits and pieces of the schema during the lifetime of the connection? I was thinking of something along the lines of a special couple of tags that tell the client to add/remove "things" or "characteristics" from its expected monitored events. Perhaps some of you have seen variations on this problem before? As a side note, XSchema looks more attractive than DTD's for this application (strict typing, among other things, would be nice).
