Re: [xml-dev] How to estimate the time needed to create an XML schema?

Whatever you come up with, multiply it by pi before submitting the 
estimate. A long-ago colleague advised me of that and it has worked 
well for me.

As for the base value, I think there are far too many variables to 
establish any kind of "industry standard". You are devising a 
serialized expression of semantics and how much thinking it takes to 
tease out the semantics of what you are working on is indeterminate. 
I can't guess what metrics you would use, either.
