Subject: RE: Schema & BP Spec: Items for today's BP/CC meeting



I have had it crash also but it usually finds an error and reports
it in the xsv.xml file.  Microsoft announced their new parser
MSXML 4.0 which is supposed to support the latest version of
the W3C schema.  I haven't downloaded the Microsoft 4.0
parser yet so I can't vouch for its validity.

I took version 099 of the DTD and converted with Extensibility.
I had to modify the namespace specifications and it validated
with the validation tool.  I didn't add any of the datatypes
into the schema, however, it should work.

The version I created is available at:
