Yes, it defines how rlo file could be constructed and the vocabulary in use.
Actually this is the starting point - I wanted to get to know the rlo file
from this angle. Seems it's not employed anywhere in Xerte. It's ok.
Xerte now is leveraging schema to implement dynamic templates. That's a
great feature!
Thanks a lot!

Best Regards,
