Possibly the former, but I'm not sure what you mean.

and very nice that tagger is too:-)

But that is doing a much easier job, that is type tagging an instance
document.

The claim here was that one could take a transform (in Xquery or perhaps
XSLT) and typecheck that it forms a function from the set of documents
of type specified in schema-1 (say docbook) to the set of documents of
type specified in schema-2 (say XHTML).
