It's the right approach for cohesion. Besides XML, there are other factors that
suggest that approach is needed.
Regulatory compliance (BASEL II, Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPPA) will be an influence. If
you have to be able to defend how you arrived at some numbers seven years ago,
you're probably going to want a repository that supports versioning for XML
schemas, source libraries, executables, XML documents, specifications, e-mails,
diagrams, spreadsheets, and more.
