James Clark's Trang processor will generate a fairly respectable RNG 
schema for a set of documents, and it can also convert from RNG into 
XSD syntax.

That's probably where I'd start, but it's a job that requires both a 
good understanding, and a high tolerance for fussiness.

And trang is packaged with oXygen.

Too bad it's not on topic for XSL or I'd say more.

Cheers,
Wendell
