XLIFF TC,
My understanding is that the W3C XML Schema is not normative. That is, it's a tool that implements the specification, but does not define the specification. So, if there is a difference between the specification and schema, the schema will be changed to conform to the specification.
Therefore, RelaxNG would simply be another language in which to implement the specification.
I recommend we invite Raymond Martin (and others) to submit a RelaxNG schema of the specification as another non-normative supporting document. I believe we can add this at any time, as we would profiles, and therefore it does not affect the schedule.

Hello,
I was wondering if you could tell me if RelaxNG has ever been considered for use with XLIFF as an alternative or additional schema format.
If it has, could I know what the reasons were for not considering it? Else I would like to suggest that it be considered and I can help by supplying additonal information and assistance in this matter.
Many document-oriented XML formats have started to adopt RelaxNG, including: OpenDocument Format, DocBook, RDF, Text Encoding Initiative, and others. It would seem worthy of consideration for XLIFF also.
Any light you can shed on this point would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Raymond Martin (Localization Industry Standards Association member)
