Joe,

Good points.  The SCM noun use case definately handles the
details via a TN to support elements/attributes/datatypes
storage.

I'm planning to have a draft of that fo mid-May timeframe.
Right now we have just a strawman XSD - but no documentation
to go with it - and of course the use case too.

Thanks, DW.
