Bravo! I think this is a great idea. > First, for those who do not know what the hack is a XML schema > and what do I need it for? FYI, the most recent issue of the JSBSim newsletter has some more information on schemas and transformations. For those interested, I'd also suggest the O'Reilly books, "XML Schema" and "XSLT Cookbook". The first JSBSim XML specification played a part in inspiring the emerging AIAA standard, development of which is being lead by Bruce Hildreth and Bruce Jackson (LaRCSim author). It is currently called DAVE-ML and there is a web site at daveml.nasa.gov. Given that emerging standard, the newest version of JSBSim features a revamped XML specification, and that format is being called JSBSim-ML v2.0 (JSBSim Markup Language). XML technologies provide a lot of useful capabilities across the board for flight simulation (as with other areas) from error checking to documentation and more. A YASim-ML would be another good addition to flightgear.
