One way to view this annotation would be as if it is defined on the  default format at the xs:schema..   Question would be what if dfdl:format at xs:schema also has dfdl:encoding specified - which one would win ?..

Subject:        [DFDL-WG] short form on xs:schema?

I don't know that we ever talked about this.

Most schema constructs support short form

<xs:element ... dfdl:encoding="utf-8" />

Does the xs:schema itself support short form for the "default" format properties?

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="...."
    dfdl:encoding="utf-8">
...
</xs:schema>
