I really don't understand this. Virtually everyone is complaining about
XSD being broken and I've never heard similar objections being raised
against RELAX NG, but apparently nobody seems to give it a slightest
consideration(?). As a data model specification language, RELAX NG is
IMO much more readable than XSD and I wrote a XSLT stylesheet allowing
annotated RELAX NG schemas to be incorporated in xml2rfc sources in a
way that resembles Knuth's literate programming. So what's wrong with
it?
