Yes, good idea!

In the meantime, it would be great if you
could send me (a link to) the model, so I can compare it to TM, too.

You can find a schema in xsd here
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=260289

The model is extended, the concept is same.

I tried to generate an Ecore file from it, using the EMF Generator Model wizard, but the xsd file wasn't accepted (didn't validate).

BTW, I liked this comment from Dave Carver:

"Oh and one recommendation, I would model it out with EMF/Ecore, and then generate the XSD from there. Probably want to bring in Ed Merks on this as well. You'll get a more realistic model starting from the abstract concepts, and then going platform specific (i.e. XSD/XML in this case).

You can do it the opposite way if necessary, but XSD is really designed for validating XML files, not for modeling abstract concepts. It tends to be used that way but it isn't it's best use."

See you at ESE!
