Hi Richard,

not sure where you are looking, but you could easily be in the wrong 
place, because I just noticed that the XML -schema page links are 
somewhat broken, due I think to more recent Apache remapping rules 
designed to give standard URLs to the XSDs, in the manner of W3C. I am 
looking into this.

In the meantime, the raw reference to the release page is: 
http://www.openehr.org/svn/specification/TAGS/Release-1.0.1/publishing/its/XML-schema/index.html

You will find 2 archetype schemas - the Archetype.xsd and the 
OpenehrProfile.xsd. The latter schema contains the special types 
C_CODE_PHRASE, C_ORDINAL and C_QUANTITY. They are defined in a separate 
package in the specifications (see links under 'Archetype Model' at 
http://www.openehr.org/releases/1.0.1/roadmap.html). Originally the 
reason for this was to ensure that the main Archetype XSD was completely 
general to all industries, by only assuming types available in UML, ISO 
11404 and similar standards. However, the added types for health are so 
useful and heavily used that I suspect in a future release we may simply 
combine the two schemas.

Ocean Informatics also has a bidirectional XML <-> ADL parser component 
which can be open sourced if the funding is available.
