Hi again, seems there is no problem. Seems my constructs are not legal. You cannot put several "bar" with different types the one after the other.
So I guess I can't hardcore-validate my documents with schemas. A big thanks to those who made XFDU and kids. Space agencies of the world are, well, big like elephants. A little bee like me has nothing to do but comply with the rules of bureaucracy and XML stuff...
