    Type:  defect                          |       Status:  new
Priority:  major                           |   Resolution:     
Keywords:  NXDL validation Schema NXentry  |  
-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
Changes (by Pete Jemian):

  * keywords:  => NXDL validation Schema NXentry

Comment:

 * '''NXentry''' has a ''definition'' field that specifies the NXDL to be
 used.
  * For '''validation''' of any NeXus data file, consider this
 transformation scenario:
    * (Advance step) Prepare XML Schema files from NXDL
    * (Advance step) Collect ''all'' XML Schema files into a master XML
 Schema
    * For HDF data, extract most content (except for data) to NeXus XML
 data file format
    * Transform XML data file to XML data validation file format (this is
 not done yet)
    * Validate XML data validation file against XML Schema
  * '''Optional''' fields or groups are used in an application definition
 to declare nomenclature
