Hi

So two of the three stationXML examples on the SCEC website are
invalid. IMHO, a lot of the value of having a schema is lost if it
isn't used for validation, at least occasionally.

I have to say that writing code to deal with StationXML is made more
complicated than it needs to be when the documentation, the xschema,
and the examples+web services are all slightly incompatible. It would
be really nice if the agreement between these three could be tightened
up a bit, especially if stationxml based web services are going to be
"the" way to programatically access metadata at the DMC in the future.

Apologies if the web services list is not the right place to post
stationXML comments.

...sigh...
