I'm glad you picked up on that. :-) Trang will generate quite a nice 
tight schema against an instance or a set of instances. Even only as a 
starter it can be quite useful.

In general, I prefer RelaxNG when using Trang for this sort of thing, 
not just because it's better at it than it is with XSD, but also because 
I find the results somewhat more tractable using my favorite tools 
(including the one that is the nominal and proper topic of this list).

Plus, take a look at Eric Van der Vlist's Examplotron:

Cheers,
Wendell
