Volunteers are warmly welcomed!

As mentioned by Jesper S Møller in December 2009,

Shouldn't this be split/spun-off into multiple bugs, one for the XSD model and one for any mapping/serialization support for ECore?

So, that bug is related to bug 288527 "(WTP) [editor] Investigate XML Schema 1.1 support"... with no activity on it yet.

Thank you VonC but it seems a bit different scenario. Eclipse depends heavily on XML parsing for its internal processing, so changing its default xml parser creates a big risk for whole platform. That is why they people are extraordinary cautiousWhile I am looking, if possible, to use an external XML parser to parse only my XML docs. So primary question is, is it possible to use more than one XML parser in Eclipse? If I am not wrong, answer is "yes". Then second question would be "how"
