Unlikely honnestly. Basically the mechanism used by libxml2 to do the RNG validation is very different from the derivation mechanism suggested by James Clark, and while interleaves are trivial in derivation, it's way harder in my scheme, and interleave of an interleave really gets untractable. The issue is know for a very long time and unfortunately I don't think I would have time to try to fix this as this would likely require a very seriour reimplementation. sorry, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ dan...@veillard.com | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/ _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ xml@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
