One area I have seen is various national standards relating to surface
transportation - they used asn.1 as a schema language, but now want to
use xml for the actual messages while sticking with the asn.1 for
schemas, because the existing versions already used it. Consequently,
we (Mitretek Systems) developed our own asn.1 -> xml schema mapping
before the one that came from the asn.1 folks was ready (ours was not a
complete mapping for any arbitrary asn.1, but nicely adequate for the
job at hand).
