RE: Relaunched and expanded XML Schema Test Collection

The new release of XML Schema test suite provides a restructured
approach to presenting tests for the schema development community.
 
The impetus for the design is to provide a defined structure,
that is, a schema, for automation of user testing and for future 
submission of tests to the test suite.
 
In the new release of the test suite, NIST has written tests
for Part 2 of W3C XML Schema second edition and has provided
xml data to supplement the original release of the test suite
to coincide with the new framework.

Tests included in the test suite are subject to the dispute and
review process outlined in the Test Suite Process Document:
 
http://www.w3.org/XML/2004/xml-schema-test-suite/XMLSchemaTS-Process.html

The Schema WG is actively seeking test submissions from its
WG members, in particular for part 2 of the specification,
and encourages members of the community to contribute
tests using the procedures outlined in the test suite overview
and framework documents:
