[Mono-dev] bug in xsd.exe

[Atsushi Eno]

Hello,

Mono's XML serialization engine, as well as .NET, does not support
all valid schemas. Actually it works under pretty much constrained
situation. Sadly there is no documentation on how it does *not* work.

I once blogged one example I know:

Cheers,
Atsushi Eno
