Do you know if there are any plans to extend http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-formal/ ("XML Schema: Formal Description") to cover Schema part 2., datatypes, in the near futures? http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-formal/ [[ XML Schema: Formal Description is a formal description of XML types and validity as specified by XML Schema Part 1: Structures. [...] In particular, future versions will incorporate some or all of the XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes specification ]] Currently all we have is http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-formal/#section-structures-datatypes ...it'd be very interesting to see Schema part 2 given the full treatment. http://www.w3.org/XML/Activity.html#future doesn't give much information on expected timescales for formalisation of datatypes. Perhaps it would help to send them encouraging noises from the DAML and RDF groups? Dan
