I guess, you got busy in something, as we saw no mail > from you about this, since quite some time. You are correct. I started revising my patch against the specs but never finished it due to a bunch of other commitments. However what I learnt during the little time I spent on this was that my patch to implement xs:override covers most (if not all) of the requirements stated in the specs. > Can we expect an > implementation from you about this, in near future?

However I would like if you can first take the patch I have submitted and start from where I've left instead of beginning from the scratch. It's a pretty simple code so I'm sure you can get hold of the logic implemented there easily. Also now that the GSoC is over and some of the other Apache releases I've been working on in the past few weeks are coming to an end I'll have some time to actually devote to this in the weeks to come. So I can help you with revising the patches and refining the design/implementation. > I guess, we plan to have a preview XML Schema 1.1 release during early > Dec 09'.
