Re: Dtd, Xsd or RNG/RNC as your choice of schema technology foryour docset?

It is, but there are things you can express in RNG that can't be
expressed in XSD (co-constraints are the first thing that come to
mind), so if you're going that route, keep in mind that you'll want to
develop eith a subset of RNG.

With XSLT2, you can fake it in a couple of different ways. I'm sure
I've written about it, but I can't put my hands on the text just
at the moment :-/
