I'll jump in here as well and agree with Eve and Mark. I'm new to this process, but it seems to me we should be making "proper" XML. Technology changes and next week UML might not be the way to model things and FOO is the latest methodology, would we change the design/process to then be more conformant with that methodology? Why shouldn't we choose ER diagrams as the better modeling environment and make our XML look like tables?
I have some trouble with the idea of trying to force XML into tools/methods that aren't designed to be used with it or for it. There are things in UML/OO that I can do that I can't in XML, and likewise things and methods in XML that don't map well to UML/OO.
Until someone comes up with a truly universal modeling language that can handle OO, relational databases, XML, etc. without "forcing the process or method" I don't see how you can choose something that doesn't work completely with the target implementation and say it should conform to the other. Maybe OO languages will morph to something that better fits the XML world in the near future.
This is another opinion from a non--OO comfortable developer.
