Correct me if I'm wrong but.. it seems you're describing XML Schema[1]? Using |
| 19 |
XML to define the value types that can exist in another XML file would be XML |
| 20 |
Schema. |

I'm going under that this is in reference to: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
"This GLEP does not specify a complete list of legal values |
| 25 |
for ``type`` -- developers should email the ``gentoo-dev`` mailing list |
| 26 |
before using a new ``type`` value." |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
and if not please specify which part of the GLEP this references to. |
