I see no evidence of the XML schema folks putting any pressure on us about the use of this term. I have however observed a tendency from folks, and not just those from the XML world, to assume that a schema language supports validation and this can cause some confusion. Personally, whilst I can see advantage to a name change, I think its too late, but as always, will be guided by the wisdom of the WG. Brian
