Many thanks for the link, when I first head of CAM the description
didn't make it sound at all useful (seems to me the name only partially
reflects the intended capabilities). This might be a standard that we
may eventually want to support.
Questions:
1) Just glancing at the spec it appears to have at least some overlap
with Schematron for parts of it. Anyone looked at a Schematron to
CAM(/subcomponent?) conversion or the converse?
2) Any one using this for anything production like?
3) Any recommended software?
