>Does anyone know of an XML Schema for describing a patent?
   The way to get one is to convert the DTD provided at the 
PTO site into an XML Schema. There are lots of DTD to XML 
Schema conversion tools. So that shouldn't be hard. 
   You should be aware that the USPTO will be changing the 
schema that they use in 2004. The new schema will be much  
more inline with the international standards in this area. 
You can find DTD's for the old (and current) format at:
http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/ac/ido/oeip/sgml/st32/redboo
k/grbv25x.html
and 
http://www.uspto.gov/web/menu/patdata.html
Information on the new "ICE" format (DTD's, etc.) can be 
found at:
