That W3C document, available at http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema.html
is incorrect. The W3C XML Schema for the AbiWord file format is available
at http://www.abisource.com/awml.xsd

I have cc'ed Dan Connolly at the W3C, who is listed as the maintainer of
that web page, so that it can be hopefully fixed.

Also, the Schema at that address is quite out of date, as is the DTD. I
hope to fix these soon. If you are interested, the DTD is at
http://www.abisource.com/awml.dtd. If you have suggestions, I will be
happy to take them into account.

Thanks for letting us know.
