A second draft of sections 2.0 and 2.1 (XSchema Document) is available.
[Reply to subject Re: XSchema Spec, Sections 2.0 and 2.1 (Draft 2)]

A second draft of Section 2.2 has been posted. The main change is that
ElementDecl elements formerly had an id attribute of type ID. Now they have
names of type NMTOKEN.

A second draft of Section 2.4 (Attribute Declarations) has been posted.
[Reply to subject Re: XSchema Spec, Section 2.4 (Draft 2)]

First drafts of Sections 2.5 (Notations) and 3.0 (Namespaces) are in
development.

It doesn't look like June 30 is achievable, thanks to my move, but I will push
to have a stable core available for development by that point.

The XSchema site has been updated to provide better descriptions of the
sections. When I couldn't navigate my own site, it was clearly time for an
improvement. The site is available at http://purl.oclc.org/NET/xschema.

Finally, as always, if anyone would like to adopt a section of the outline,
please contact me privately.
