You know, I have been thinking more and more about this - about how we  
are approaching it. Being that our TC, nor anyone here, gave birth to  
ICS nor the 201 form, I am a little concerned that we might be  
overstepping our bounds to consider creating an XML schema  
representation of it.

Perhaps a more politically correct approach would be to defined an  
XForms (http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/) model of the form and maybe  
even suggest that implementations should use the XForms UI vocabulary  
to "draw" the actual form in a browser, in an app, on a phone, etc.?  
Something just doesn't feel right about us defining an actual XML  
schema, BUT using XML for us to describe a form....well, that may  
result in not only better work on our part, because of the power of  
XForms, but also in something that gives credit where credit is due  
(and doesn't claim credit for something that isn't ours).

Anyone else have an opinion on this one way or the other? Its possible  
we can't do what we need in XForms, but it couldn't hurt to check.
