DocBook XML Schema is currently an experimental XML Schema version of DocBook. +++++++++++++++++++ XML Schema FYI: XML Schemas serve a similar function as DTDs in describing markup grammar and content models, but address many shortcomings of SGML DTDs. They allow for much greater control in specifying valid content. They're expected to replace DTDs. Some useful features: - Richer content datatypes (+/- numbers, boolean, dates, times, ...) - User defined datatypes (e.g. only names of my dogs are allowed here) - Refinable datatypes (see http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/1999/07/schemas/index.html) - Namespace support (which is kludgey in DTDs) (The above taken from Norm Walsh's Schema article: http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/1999/07/schemas/index.html) More info about schema can be found at w3c: http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema and a nice article on xml.com: http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/2000/11/29/schemas/part1.html ++++++++++++++++++ The distribution terms are not currently specified, but I suspect they'll be the same as DocBook. I'll work this out with the upstream developer.
