I mean the same thing by database as what you are probably familiar with: an entity which stores an arbitrary set of tables and relations. An XML schema will define the structure of a single database. You used to be able to define the structure of multiple databases in the XML schema, but now you will only be allowed to define the structure of one database per XML schema. The SQL is generated from the definition of the structure in the XML schema. I will try and clear up any ambiguities in the proposal document. We've actually agreed to go ahead in IRC so I'll be making the changes tomorrow. -- jvz.
