<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I am collecting a list of
EXPRESS complier [name, version, platform, link] tuples, for a list that will
be referenced from a SharePoint version of the internal review checklist. This
will enable project teams to more precisely specify which compilers were used
to compile their schemas, which I hope will lead to higher schema quality. I
only need compilers that are likely to be in use today by SC 4 project teams
(historical versions from 10 years ago are not needed).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>I think the LFOAS may cause problems due
to the differences in modelling styles etc. Though I do agree it is something
we should look at.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>Before we get there though we also need
to look at SFOAS (short form of all schemas). This may give us the ability to
identify problems and the source of those problems before we generate the LFOAS
from it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
