What is interesting to me is that this many years after the specification of XML, all of the noise about relying on well-formedness and self-description, and the general public distain for DTDs, how many people are still using DTDs and who they are. Whatever their faults, their utility remains. But as noted before, they are still the only schema language mandated by the specification, so perhaps reliability is built in. len From: Bill de hOra [mailto:bill@d...] Well less than two years ago, RNG was a fringe technology. Now it's on the rise - I'm confident over the next two years RNG + son of XSD will be the way we describe content models for web services. So I suspect you'll see support for RNG in these tools. Although, if policy makers are being diven by tools instead of technologies, arguably they're putting the cart before the horse - but that's a different discussion.
