RE: [xri] Status of RelaxNG

["Gabe Wachob" <gabe.wachob@amsoft.net>]

You'll notice that we've had, for quite a while, a placeholder in the XRI
resolution specs for a RelaxNG schema for the XRD & XRDS documents. We
decided against using RelaxNG early on because we feared that it would be
tilting just a *bit* to far at windmills. That may not be the case any more.


RelaxNG is a different way of thinking about document correctness, but in
many cases, its far simpler and is in closer alignment to what you are
actually trying to do with a schema...
