[Fwd: [xml-dev] XML and Versioning]

["Eve L. Maler" <Eve.Maler@Sun.COM>]

Of possible interest to the XML-heads among us.  Some changes ("weak 
wildcards") are being considered by W3C that would ease some of the 
annoying problems associated with preparing for XSD extensibility that 
we (and Liberty) have experienced.

Noah Mendelsohn posted the following to the www-tag list.

The discussion in the attachment to this email
takes up the particularly difficult problem
of versioning in XML Schemas.   Versioning is
a tough problem for any evolving system as
a version of a schema is analogous to an allele
in a biological system.   If any of you have
time to review Noah's submission, it is an
excellent thread topic to expose to a wider
audience.
