This directory contains scripts that translate between the basic, 
domain representation of the data model and other, more user friendly 
representations.

Various types of scripts are collected.

1. An XSLT transformation of the intermediate representation to a 
de-normalised\footnote{blablabla} version of it. That version is still a 
valid intermediate representation! 
It can therefore be used to generate XMl schemas, database representations etc.
One MIGHT use it to implement a DM-repository iso using the domain representation
from which it is derived.

2. a denormalising XSLT script.
This transforms an XML document created according to the domain representation
to the corresponding denormalised representation. The denormalised representation
MUST be a valid document according the the XML schemas

3. a normalising XSLT script.
This transforms an XML document created according to the denormalised representation
to the corresponding normalised representation.

4. A database script containing custom database views
These work on the domain database and implement the TAP schema derived form the 
denormalised intermediate representation.


NOTE all the scripts here are model dependent, hence they may and generally will use
hard coded model dependent values, such as namespace URIs etc.
They are NOT part of VO-URP, though we may add to VO-URP standard naming/discovery
functions to see whether scripts like this exists.
We may then base some automation on their existsence, for example to 
automatically create the denormalised intermediate representations,
generate schemas from them and have a place in the generated (Java) code
to use the (de)normalisation scripts for example. 




TODO
handle xsi:type with namespaces properly.
Predefine all xmlns prefixes in root element.
