Any body has experience with XML schema > validation within PostgreSQL? Sorry; but was sounding a little over engineered before, it seems to be blowing out of proportion now. By whom and how are these (immensely complicated) rule sets going to be maintained? how is using XML going to make this any easier than using the tools native to the database? If they're validated inside the database then it's going to be done by a DB admin anyway, or am I missing something? If they're done by the DB admin, isn't it easy to just use the tools they're used to? -- Sam http://samason.me.uk/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
