Copyright (c) 2001 IMS GLC, Inc.
2000-04-21, Adjustments by T.D. Wason from CP 1.0.
2001-02-22, T.D.Wason: Modify for 2000-10-24 XML-Schema version.
Modified to support extension.
2001-03-12, T.D.Wason: Change filename, target and meta-data namespaces
and meta-data filename.
Add meta-data to itemType, fileType and organizationType.
Do not define namespaces for xml in XML instances generated from this xsd.
Imports IMS meta-data xsd, lower case element names.
This XSD provides a reference to the IMS meta-data root element as imsmd:record
If the IMS meta-data is to be used in the XML instance then the instance
must definean IMS meta-data prefix with a namespace.
The meta-data targetNamespace should be used.
2001-03-20, Thor Anderson: Remove manifestref, change resourceref back to
identifierref, change manifest back to contained by manifest.
--Tom Wason: manifest may contain _none_ or more manifests.
2001-04-13 Tom Wason: corrected attirbute name structure. Was misnamed type.
2001-05-14 Schawn Thropp: Made all complexType extensible with the group.any
Added the anyAttribute to all complexTypes.
Changed the href attribute on the fileType and resourceType to xsd:string
Changed the maxLength of the href, identifierref, parameters, structure
attributes to match the Information model.
2001-07-25 Schawn Thropp: Changed the namespace for the Schema of Schemas to
the 5/2/2001 W3C XML Schema Recommendation.
attributeGroup attr.imsmd deleted, was not used anywhere.
Any attribute declarations that have use = "default"
changed to use="optional" - attr.structure.req.
Any attribute declarations that have value="somevalue" changed to
default="somevalue" - attr.structure.req (hierarchical).
Removed references to IMS MD Version 1.1.
Modified attribute group "attr.resourcetype.req" to change use from optional
to required to match the information model. As a result the default value
also needed to be removed
Name change for XSD. Changed to match version of CP Spec
2001-11-04 Chris Moffatt:
1. Refer to the xml namespace using the "x" abbreviation instead of "xml".
This changes enables the schema to work with commercial XML Tools
2. Revert to original IMS CP version 1.1 namespace.
i.e. "http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imscp_v1p1"
This change done to support the decision to only change the XML namespace with
major revisions of the specification i.e. where the information model or binding
changes (as opposed to addressing bugs or omissions). A stable namespace is
necessary to the increasing number of implementors.
3. Changed name of schema file to "imscp_v1p1p3.xsd" and
version attribute to "IMS CP 1.1.3" to reflect minor version change
2003-03-21 Schawn Thropp
The following updates were made to the Version 1.1.3 "Public Draft" version:
1. Updated name of schema file (imscp_v1p1.xsd) to match to IMS naming guideance
2. Updated the import statement to reference the xml.xsd found at
"http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd". This is the current W3C schema
recommended by the W3C to reference.
3. Removed all maxLength's facets. The maxLength facets was an incorrect binding
implementation. These lengths were supposed, according to the information
model, to be treated as smallest permitted maximums.
4. Added the variations content model to support the addition in the information
model.
2004-09-14 Alex Jackl, IMS Global:
1. Added "xmlns:xsi" declaration
2. Changed elementFormDefault to "qualified"
3. Changed version attribute to "IMS CP 1.1.4" to reflect minor version change
4. Changed Process Content Values to "lax" from "strict"
5. Added attribute extension to metadataType
6. Corrected documentation title placement
7. Changed xsd namespace schema location from "http://www.w3.org/2001/03/xml.xsd" to "http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"
8. Changed item multiplicity to "1 to many"
Any namespaced element from any namespace may be included within an "any" element. The namespace for the imported element must be defined in the instance, and the schema must be imported.
