I would ask that the schema working group decide how or whether to upgrade the 
anyURI data type in schemas 1.1 to support the new syntax of RFC 3986. It's 
mostly but not quite the same as the older syntax in RFC 2396. For instance RFC 
2396 allows an indefinite number of colons and @ signs in registry names, while 
3986 does not. For instance, this URI is legal according to 2396 but not 3986:

dcp.tcp.pft://192.168.0.1:1002:3002?fec=1&crc=0

This has recently been raised as an issue in Xerces-J's schema validation. See

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1060

There may be other incompatibilities as well.

Part 2
