FIXML Schemas are more like software than paper specification documents so we manage them under change control using Subversion. We are planning a maintenance release of all repositories and specifications for 2009- this would include corrections to FIXML Schemas (the FIX.5.0 schema also has an issue with InstrumentLeg for instance). Please post specific errata to the appropriate "Version" Changes discussion forum - or in the case of FIXML Schema - reporting it here will be fine. Once the error is reported - FPL Technical support folks capture the issue in Jira. Resolution is coordinated with the FPL Technical Support area and if needed with the GTC Governance Board. Hope this helps. > Dear All, > > I have a question about errors in FIXML DTD/schemas.
