Re: [office] Two JIRA Issues for discussion

[Patrick Durusau <patrick@durusau.net>]

Michael,

Switching the schema is a big step but I assume that there are tools to 
measure formal equivalence of schemas?

I haven't looked, therefore the question.

If there were some assurance other than "eye balling" the two schemas, I 
would feel more confident about a last minute change.

Hope you are looking forward to a great weekend!
