Hi Ben & Justin, I think I might be wrong of saying the EMF model not handling <any/> element, as when I step thru the code at org.geotools.xml.Schemas (breakpoint at line 831), I can see the particle has an xs:any element (org.eclipse.xsd.impl.xsdparticlei...@f16568 (element: [xs:any: null]) (minOccurs: 0, maxOccurs: -1)), but Schemas class will skip it since it doesn't handle "ANY_ELEMENT". So is it correct to say that it is not handled in geotools schemas parsing ?

If so, how should it appear in the XSDTypeDefinition? Florence reports seeing no elements in the EMF model of the parsed schema. Kind regards, Ben.
