Re: representing XML structures in a spec?

[Stephen Green <stephengreenubl@gmail.com>]

I asked about it on XML-Dev and received this response
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200910/msg00024.html

I guess it's not so much a named notation as just a
convention frequently used in varying forms. I'd suggest we
could use it for the scripting language syntactic/semantic
definitions.
