<p><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Hi all,</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Just following up on this now that people are starting to get back from their Christmas breaks.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">People have mentioned in the past Schematron that does second level validation on DDI documents to ensure they are valid, e.g. Correct ID/Version/Agency information, non-duplicates of ID/Versions in schemes, etc...</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">I had a quick look on the website and on Google, but wasn't able to find anything.</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Given their importance in ensuring software makes good valid DDI, is there somewhere where I can get a copy of these?</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Cheers,</font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Sam.</font><br>
