As agreed at the call on 10th January, broadcasters should have the option of specifying their own XML schema in their delivery documents as an alternative to the AMWA XML DM for Programmes.
This gives more flexibility for broadcasters, whilst ensuring that DM remains mandatory. Broadcasters have a default schema which ties in with that used in the rest of the X Family if they don't have specific requirements, and reference files can be created from the AMWA Specification alone.
