FYI, when I (just for the heck of it) made a case for XML_RELAXNG_OPTIONAL identical to the one for XML_RELAXNG_GROUP, it kind of got me half-way there. It correctly accepted e.g. "1% 2%" and complained about "1%blah 2%" and "1% 2%blah", so the validation against the datatype worked for both values if they were present, however it would no longer accept just "%1"... so only half-way ;) > >> This guy (Jos) in the KOffice project is working on an automated test >> harness for our conversion of other office formats to OpenDocument >> where he first converts to OpenDocument and then run a validation on >> the resulting document.

No hurry at all, we can use Jing until then. Just thought I'd bring it up since in the long run it would be nice if libxml2 were capable of validation against the OpenDocument schemas, since it's a widespread format. Thanks for your time!
