Choose relax for XML schemas
Tim Bray is pushing an effort to choose Relax NG for XML schemas. I simply say yes, if you have to have a schema, at least use a schema language that makes sense. W3C XML Schema is an abomination that has done more harm to XML based systems than anything else. Every time I’ve seen a team try to make use of W3C XML Schemas, it results in nothing but headaches. I just look on with frustration over my knowledge that it doesn’t have to be that way. It’s really quite sad to see how bad the W3C screwed up with that technology and how widely it penetrated other specifications without much thought being given to it’s real quality.
