I did it this way because some of the new facilities in 1.1 don't involve new syntax, they involve the removal of restrictions on existing syntax, and I wanted to make sure that people would get the stricter 1.0 checking by default, especially as 1.1 is still rather bleeding edge. If your schema is valid against the 1.0 rules then I don't think there are any cases where it will behave differently if 1.1 is enabled. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
