TREX and RELAX unite?



eWeek has an article about the W3C XML Schema complexity controversy at
http://www.zdnet.com/eweek/stories/general/0,11011,2710691,00.html

Little of it would be news to readers of XML-DEV (other than the fact that
our little spat has made the tradepaper headlines!), but I noticed one thing
that I hadn't heard of before: "Clark and Murata recently merged their
efforts under OASIS, in Billerica, Mass. Clark hopes they can produce a
first draft in two to three months. "

Can anyone comment on this -- is it true, what does it mean for the ISO
effort to standardize RELAX, what (if any) conceptual gaps between "tree
regular expressions" and "hedge automata" would have to be smoothed over for
this to succeed?
