Re: [xml-dev] RE: RNG more popular with doc heads and XSD with
If I get a document with a schema in some language, I just use the 
document. If someone hands me a schema, I tend to use it in whatever 
language it was written in. If I write a schema, I think about what tools I 
will be using, and use a schema language that is supported by those tools.

I tend to use XML without any schema, with DTDs, or with W3C XML Schema, 
mainly because that's what many of the tools I use support. Recently, I 
started using nXML, which requires RELAX-NG, so I have started converting 
the schemas I use to RELAX-NG.

The reasons I have for choosing a given schema language rarely have to do 
with the technical advantages and disadvantages of the schema languages. 
Except for one thing: when I write examples, I prefer not to use W3C XML 
Schema because I find it difficult to read.
