Hi,

Why is XML Schema specification so large? XML Schema Datatypes, the part I need,
is 14,000 lines long, almost as long as http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl, which is more
than datatypes. 

I wonder if there is a modularization for the datatypes specification,
with a small core and additional features. 

David
