RE: Restricting the schema for schemas

No, I'm afraid you cannot.
The Schema for Schemas  is illustrative.  I very much doubt if any
Schema Validator interprets it.
I think they all hard-wire it into their code.

 Subject: Restricting the schema for schemas
 
 

 Hi,
 
 I have a program that parses XML Schemas and I would like to
specify a
 few restrictions on the XML Schemas it can read. For example I
would
 like to specify that it will only process XML Schemas that allow
element
 names to be a maximum of 20 characters long.
 
 Would it be possible to write an XML Schema that is a subset of
the
 schema for schemas ( http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd )
using
 restriction and then schema validate other XML Schemas against
it?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Jasmin
