Eric - Very interesting. And the follow-ups are interesting, too... David Carlisle points out what Jeni mentioned - that namespace changes can be quite messy: http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200103/msg00996.html In http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200103/msg01021.html and http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200103/msg01035.html the COM solution mirror's Jeni's "proper version" suggestion. But that only seems to apply to the schemaLocation (not namespace name), unless you keep separate schema versions with different namespace names - yuck.

For what's worth, a link on the policy I am using for XSLTunit and Examplotron (quite similar to what's been discussed here): http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200103/msg00995.html Also, the main downside I have found for version attribute is for vocabularies which are "embedded". Where would you locate a version attribute for XLink or RSS in a document for instance? ... Hope this helps.
