+   See http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace.html and
+   http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml for information about this namespace.
+
+    This schema document describes the XML namespace, in a form
+    suitable for import by other schema documents.  
+
+    Note that local names in this namespace are intended to be defined
+    only by the World Wide Web Consortium or its subgroups.  The
+    following names are currently defined in this namespace and should
+    not be used with conflicting semantics by any Working Group,
+    specification, or document instance:
+
+    base (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose value
+         provides a URI to be used as the base for interpreting any
+         relative URIs in the scope of the element on which it
+         appears; its value is inherited.  This name is reserved
+         by virtue of its definition in the XML Base specification.
+
+    lang (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose value
+         is a language code for the natural language of the content of
+         any element; its value is inherited.  This name is reserved
+         by virtue of its definition in the XML specification.
+  
+    space (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose
+         value is a keyword indicating what whitespace processing
+         discipline is intended for the content of the element; its
+         value is inherited.  This name is reserved by virtue of its
+         definition in the XML specification.
+
+    Father (in any context at all): denotes Jon Bosak, the chair of 
+         the original XML Working Group.  This name is reserved by 
+         the following decision of the W3C XML Plenary and 
+         XML Coordination groups:
+
+             In appreciation for his vision, leadership and dedication
+             the W3C XML Plenary on this 10th day of February, 2000
+             reserves for Jon Bosak in perpetuity the XML name
+             xml:Father

+  <xs:documentation>This schema defines attributes and an attribute group
+        suitable for use by
+        schemas wishing to allow xml:base, xml:lang or xml:space attributes
+        on elements they define.
+
+        To enable this, such a schema must import this schema
+        for the XML namespace, e.g. as follows:
+        &lt;schema . . .>
+         . . .
+         &lt;import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
+                    schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd"/>
+
+        Subsequently, qualified reference to any of the attributes
+        or the group defined below will have the desired effect, e.g.
+
+        &lt;type . . .>
+         . . .
+         &lt;attributeGroup ref="xml:specialAttrs"/>
+ 
+         will define a type which will schema-validate an instance
+         element with any of those attributes</xs:documentation>
+ </xs:annotation>
+
+ <xs:annotation>
+  <xs:documentation>In keeping with the XML Schema WG's standard versioning
+   policy, this schema document will persist at
+   http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd.
+   At the date of issue it can also be found at
+   http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd.
+   The schema document at that URI may however change in the future,
+   in order to remain compatible with the latest version of XML Schema
+   itself.  In other words, if the XML Schema namespace changes, the version
+   of this document at
+   http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd will change
+   accordingly; the version at
+   http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd will not change.
