Hi Folks,

In section 3.1.2 of the Structures specification it says:

    Although no external representation of schemas
    is required ...

What is an "external" representation of an XML Schema? External to what? 

What is a non-external (internal?) representation of an XML Schema? Do such things exist?

/Roger
