Actually, quite a few people disagree with using the namespace URI to 
retrieve the schema, as recent discussions have shown. Unfortunately, 
although we've assembled a mass of discomfort, none of us has come up with 
what I would consider an absolute killer technical argument -- that is, one 
that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that it won't work. Perhaps we could 
turn the tables :) and ask, why is it so important to use the namespace URI 
to retrieve the schema instead of something else, such as a PI, a special 
attribute, or the aforementioned hub document?
