Initial RDDL docs.

Here is a first pass at the RDDL docs
(one for each namespace).

Please review for accuracy (lots of
opportunity for cut/paste errors :-)

      Service Data Objects (SDO) Specification
      
December 16, 2008

      Introduction
      
This document describes version 3.0 of the SDO specification and the
        SDO XML
         namespace. It also contains a directory of links to related resources using the
        Resource Directory Description Language (RDDL) 2.0.
      

      Namespace URI Versioning Policy
      
The pattern of the SDO XML namespace URI is:

      
     http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/opencsa/sdo/xml/yyyymm

      
Where yyyymm is the century, year and month chosen by the TC for that version of the namespace URI.

      
It is the intent of the OASIS SDO Technical Committee that the SDO XML namespace URI will not change arbitrarily with each subsequent revision of the corresponding WSDL or XML Schema documents but rather change only when a subsequent revision, published in conjunction with a Committee Specification, results in non-backwardly compatible changes from a previously published Committee Specification.

      
Under this policy, the following are examples of backwards compatible changes that would not result in assignment of a new namespace URI:
        
          
addition of new global element, attribute, complexType and simpleType definitions

          
addition of new elements or attributes in locations covered by a previously specified wildcard

          
modifications to the pattern facet of a type definition for which the value-space of the previous definition remains valid or for which the value-space of the preponderance of instance would remain valid

          
modifications to the cardinality of elements for which the value-space of possible instance documents conformant to the previous revision of the schema would still be valid with regards to the revised cardinality rule
