[ebxml-cppa] Re: v. 2.0 ebXML xsd schema directory

[Arvola Chan <arvola@tibco.com>]

Tony:

Peter and I are using different commerically available schema editor
products (XML Spy versus XML Authority) that support the W3C Recommended
version of XML Schema. We can certainly make sure that the schema is
understandable by both of these schema editors.

I have been responsible for editing both the MSG and CPP/A schemas. The MSG
schema has been used within the UCC sponsored interoperability tests
coordinated by the Drummond Group. So far, the only issue I have heard of is
that one of the parsers cannot deal with the Annotation construct. We have
to decide whether we should retain the use of annotations for
comments/documentation purposes within the CPP/A schema.

It would also be useful to ask for volunteers among the TC members to use
their favorite XML parser to verify that they can understand the CPP/A
schema. One thing they must ensure is that the parser at the W3C
Recommendation XML Schema level.
