While this discussion does not really belong to this thread: We should
standardize the way we want to specify XML formats. I still insist on
XML-Schema, since it is a W3C recommendation. The short format of
RelaxNG might be a bit easier to read/write, but it is not an official
standard, or am I wrong?
