Re: regular expressions in xml schema

I can't immediately see why your regexp doesn't match, _but_ pleasee
note that as made clear in XSV's home page [1] XSV implements only a
very simple subset of XML Schema's regexp language, and treats any
pattern it doesn't cover as  _accepting everything_.

Having said that, your pattern falls within the subset XSV thinks it
can handle, and I _think_ it's correct in accepting "hello@world.com".

perl agrees, when I type it in by hand . . .
