Subject: RE: [dita] W3C XML Schema 1.1
Eric, Thanks for the reply. I noticed that this feature has been included in the XML Schema 1.1 requirements (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-11-req/#N40014F). However, since we are using the W3C XML Schema 1.0 spec (not DTD) for most (if not all) of our XML projects at Boeing, I am concerned if we are taking a major risk to adopt DITA today before the following events actually happen: 1) W3C releases the XML Schema 1.1 Recommendation 2) DITA incorporates the needed feature(s) of XML Schema 1.1 Please help us better understand the potential risks.

RQ-17 - http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2002/07/xmlschema-1.1-current-reqs-list.html #restrictn-rules (not sure if you have to be a W3C member to view the document). I did speak to IBM's rep on the workgroup and he's is aware of our requirements as well as the WG. They working on solving this issue for WXS 1.1. Part of the new algorithm is implemented in Saxon 8.0 and XSV Kind regards, Eric Eric A.
