[relaxng-user] Re: Converting DTDs (and DTD developers) to RELAX NG schemas

[Mitch Amiano]

"Auxiliary" is suggestive of a subordinated role. Ditto for "add-on", which sounds like a band-aid(tm). "Adjunct" sounds a litle more academic, but is also a discounting term. You might consider the goals your technique addresses... the value of the role proposed for the relaxng schemas in the use-case. 

How about "migration schema" (schemas used in migrating from one validation workflow to another), 
"refinement schema" (schemas which refine the precision with which an existing workflow can perform validation),
or "articulation schema" (schemas which provide controlled jointing between other schemas, addressing different validation goals).
