Hi Yury,
You're right that Page Schemas, unlike the other two, is not really a
"generic" framework, and is pretty tightly integrated in with the standard
SMW approach to data structures, which has caused some problems.
Personally, I think Page Schemas works well now - I use it on a regular
basis - but that of course is a matter of opinion. Like with any software,
there's always room for improvement.
