<p class="MsoNormal">It seems there is another component in VOTABLE using an xs:any, namely the anyText type used by DESCRIPTON elements.<o:p></o:p></p>

Yes, I think that use of the xs:any type is the right way to go here.<br>
<br>
However, that is already accommodated by the VOTable schema as it stands.<br>

<xs:any namespace="##other" processContents="lax" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/><br>

which means that the elements from the VODML schema can be included<br>

but that's really a votlint bug that I will fix.<br>
<br>
I would certainly favour this approach rather than adding new VOTable<br>
elements, to avoid unnecessary coupling between the VODML and VOTable<br>
standards.<br>
<br>
Concerning the xsi:type="mapping:VODML-type" attribute:<br>
as I understand it, that wouldn't work with a schema in the form<br>
of the one at<br>

<br>
since that defines elements directly and not types (Gerard queried<br>
this stylistic decision during the DM workshop session #4).<br>
<br>
So I'm not quite sure how validation of the embedded VODML would<br>
proceed: either the schema could be rephrased to define types, or<br>
perhaps XSD validators are able to determine the required contents<br>
based on the <VODML> element name without requiring an xsi:type.<br>
<br>
One other point on the current merged-syntax.xsd: use of XMLSchema 1.1,<br>
instead of 1.0, makes it harder to validate using some tools.<br>
Java support at least is not so good for XSD 1.1, so I don't know<br>
whether votlint would be able to provide XSD validation for VODML<br>
if it was defined using this schema.<br>

Do you think it could work ?<br>

• X-RAY Astronomy<br>
• Asteroids, multi-core datasets<br>
• CTA and MM astronomy : meta-data characterization<br>
<br>
• Data Provider / client specific use-cases<br>
• Need for annotations to help processing spectra<br>
• Need to associate parameters<br>
• Need for a simple description of the photometric calibration<br>
• Need for a simple view on Provenance<br>
• Annotation on the fly feasible<br>
• Model-based PyVO API easy to design<br>
<br>
• Mapping syntax<br>

<br>
Annotation<br>
=========<br>
An important effort has been made over the last 6 weeks to merge the 2<br>
syntax proposals:<br>
