Hello Cecil,
> I did find one implementation [of NVDL] (JNVDL)... are there others?
Yes, here are two others:
1. Oxygen XML has a Java implementation of NVDL, called oNVDL. It can be downloaded from:
http://www.oxygenxml.com/onvdl.html
Also, Oxygen XML supports NVDL in their XML Editor Tool.
2. SnRNV (Small nano Reconstruction NVDL Validator). SnRNV is a streaming NVDL validator, dispatcher, and reconstructor. SnRNV can be downloaded from:
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~eb2m-mrt/nvdl/SnRNV-1.0.zip
> How new is this? Likelihood of wide acceptance?
NVDL is an ISO standard. I believe that it became a standard in 2005. Lots of people and organizations are already using it, e.g.,
- OOXML
- Ecma-376 Office Open XML
- W3C Internationalization Tag Set
- W3C SVG Tiny 1.2
- Docbook v5.0
- XML Digital Signature

Interesting read, thanks. I did find one implementation (JNVDL)... are there others? How new is this? Likelihood of wide acceptance?
