XML Schema version and DAML+OIL/OWL

DAML/OWL folk -

Is there anything in the DAML+OIL or OWL specs (or in the new RDF specs)
that ties their use to any particular version of XML Schema?  I hope and
assume not, but I'd like to be certain.

In DAML-S, we've been using an old version of XML Schema, because it was
the version used in DAML+OIL examples.  We'd like to start using the
most recent version of XML Schema (both in our DAML+OIL files and in our
OWL files).

I want to be careful about this, because some of the data types have
changed.  For instance, a datatype called UriReference is now called
something else (anyURI, I think).

Am I correct in assuming that the DAML+OIL and OWL specs are completely
agnostic as to the details of XML data types, so that any version of XML
Schema can be used in ontology definitions?

Thanks,
David Martin
