In the WD, it is mentioned that:

[Definition: Schema language refers in this specification to XML DTD, XML Schema
or RELAX NG.]

Do you need to provide a closed list of schema languages? You could define in
the spec how to use ITS with these three and still explicitely leave the option
of using ITS in other schema languages using the annotation mechanisms available
in these languages.
