Thank you for writing. Here's a personal reply, in order to get you a timely response:


> Under the Normative References section in http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/ at the citation for XML 1.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#XML) the document links to the August 14th, 2000 Working Draft (http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xml-2e-20000814).


Please note that the latest version of XML Schema is 1.1, at
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema11-2/

If this doesn't resolve the programmer's question, please suggest that the programmer file bugs (ideally against 1.1, not 1.0) as needed. We will look at them, although we do not have a lot of resources available to process them, which means a resolution may take a long time.

In the meantime, the most useful thing for users is that the latest version of XML 1.0 (generally XML 1.0 5th edition today) or 1.1 be used.

The outdated reference in Schema version 1.0 was of course an oversight.

I hope this helps.
