There's an important difference here. One of the reasons that W3C XML Schema
is such a beast is that it was designed to assign types to elements in your
instance document as well as giving a yes/no answer on validity. Relax NG
does validation only, not typing. This feature is heavily exploited in the
way that schema-aware XSLT processing works.
