Don't think that there would be a DTD or schema, but you can find examples.
Here you are the appserver plugin changes.xml:

---
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<document>
  <properties>
    <title>Changes</title>
    <author email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">dIon Gillard</author>
  </properties>

  <body>
    <release version="1.1" date="in CVS">
      <action dev="dion" type="fix">
        Updated docs so that they referred to the current release and not
        b5
      </action>
      <action dev="dion" type="fix">
        Fix for jars not being included in an EAR file
      </action>
      <action dev="dion" type="add">
        Added the new <a href="changes-report.html">changes report</a>.
      </action>
    </release>
  </body>
</document>
---

Pretty straight, I think. You can study the changes plugin to learn that
an action type trnsformed into ${type}.gif image, so you can find
the type vocabulary in the images directory. The result of the file above
can be seen here:
