I concur with David's concerns. In fact, it is written in the
Technical Architecture document that no one single point of failure is
acceptable within the architecture. Therefore, I would assert that a
different approach would have to suffice.
When I reviewed the document, it was unclear what we were using
namespaces for. Is it to simply differentiate elements which MAY
conflict (aka namespace support for XML v 1.0) or are we really trying
to import a schema definition (aka #sC schema import feature). If the
latter, please justify this decision.
Thanks
