Hi Andrey,

I phrased it wrong. The structure is actually pretty basic but depends
so much on the type of object (UML, etc.) that a schema would be of
little use to extract or transform to anything useful without knowing
how the module implements the structure. That's what I was referring
to, not that an XSD itself would be hard to manage.
