Hi,

Most processors I'm familiar with allow some sort of association of =
schemas
with namespaces via the API so that one can have a list of schemas =
maintained
by the API seperate from the actual Schemas, allowing the Processor to =
take
care of scenarios such as 
Schema # 1 uses xsd:any with processContents= strict when content of =
the
document at the point where xsd:any is allowed is in namespace x without
Schema #1 referencing Schema #2 which validates x directly. 

This basically gives the same capability that one can have with
xsi:schemaLocation at the instance to the application. 

The thing I'm wondering about is, is this capacity defined anywhere in =
the
XML Schema specs? I'm looking in "4 Schemas and Namespaces: Access and
Composition" http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#composition and I can't =
find
anything. Anywhere else? Different Processors seem to implement this
differently, and it doesn't seem to me to be the kind of thing that one =
would
require of a spec, thus my question. Hope this question was clear.

Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen
