That's still being clarified.

My understanding is that, in practical terms, we'll have:

Omnimark 5.5 (free) which supports SGML and
valid XML.

Omnimark 6 (free) which supports well-formed
XML only (no DTD support)

Omnimark 6 (not-free) which supports SGML, XML
and schemes (plus a whole pile of other stuff).

This should pretty much do everything
for everyone: just pick the version you
need for the job at hand.
