9:15 - 12:15	Free Education Class: XML Schema Development by Enrique Quisbert, SAG, Senior Technical Instructor This class is a condensed version of a popular class provided by SAG's Education Department. XML Schema, a more powerful alternative to Document Type Definitions (DTD), is used with XML to specify the structural information about an XML document. XML Schema has a purpose similar to that of a DTD, but goes several steps further. It provides better support of modular design and a much more systematic datatyping capability. Topics: Building XML Schemas Datatyping: Simple, Primitive and User Defined Modular type: Complex, Groups Working with several Schema documents: Importing schemas
