Agreed. RNC is easier to read. The problem with compact notation is using it with tools. Most tools if they support rng, support the xml version. The rnc2rng (just tried) does not work well on the atom rng. At least, does not generate an xml file that works with xjc.

The XSDs with the CMIS are useful for creating plain java objects you can quickly use to generate appropriate XML as well as parse XML into these objects.

So what would it be good for, then?

Don't say "documentation", because Relax NG (Compact Notation) is much 
better for that :-).
