Figure out some API that makes everyone happy for OMP & OAP and nail that down 
as some _publicly available .xsd_. IOW please create a common XML schema that 
is used and documented. Surely that can be changed from version to version but 
until the very first release there should be some  version set in stone. So 
please get together and figure out how you would like that API / schema.

My 0,02$,

PS: And on a personal note, please spare me that "Relax NG" crap but simply 
stick with some XML schema that can be validated by common tools without any 
further inconveniences.
