Re: p:validate-with-xml-schema - multiple schemas provided

Per the discussion on 16 Apr, I've amended the description of
p:validate-with-xml-schema to include the following text:

   <para>Validation is performed against the set of schemas represented
   by the documents on the <port>schema</port> port. These schemas must
   be used in preference to any schema locations provided by schema
   location hints encountered during schema validation, that is, schema
   locations supplied for <code>xs:import</code> or
   <code>xsi:schema-location</code>, or determined by
   schema-processor-defined namespace-based strategies, for the
   namespaces covered by the documents available on the schemas port.
   </para>

I think that satisfies the related issue that came up during discussion.
As for the meat of the issue that Vojtech raised, as to whether processors
may|must gaurantee the right result given this example:

  <p:input port="schema">
    <p:inline>
      <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
        <xs:include schemaLocation="http://foo.com/document.xsd"/>
      </xs:schema>
    </p:inline>
    <!-- the following inline schema overrides the 'default'
         schema located at: http://foo.com/document.xsd -->
    <p:inline xml:base="http://foo.com/document.xsd">
      <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
        ...
      </xs:schema>
    </p:inline>
  </p:input>

Where the salient point is whether or not the second inline document
is used when the first inline document is expanded by the schema
processor, I'm inclined to point to section 2.2.1 and punt.

Basically, this becomes implementation dependent.

I'm not happy with that answer but I don't think we have a precedent
for providing a normative answer. I fear that if we want to provide a
normative answer to this question, we will have to solve all of the
issues papered over by 2.2.1 and I don't think we can practically do
that for V1.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
