| This directory contains the XML Schemas (XSD) used by the Android SDK Repository. |
| |
| The repository exports all the packages that compose the SDK as well as |
| various manifest that define what is available in the repository. |
| The XML schemas available here allows clients to validate the manifests. |

| Naming Convention |
| ----------------- |
| |
| Repository schemas are named sdk-type-N.xsd where |
| - type is either addon, addons-list or repository. |
| - N is the schema revision number, starting at 1 and increment with each revision. |
| |
| Schemas can also be named -sdk-type-N.xsd. |
| The dash prefix means this schema is a *future* schema that is not yet |
| used in production. This allows the repository to test future schemas |
| before they are deployed. |
