Description

The AppxManifest XSD schemas that are in this repository were last refreshed two years ago, but new things have been added since then. For example the uap17 namespace definition is missing.

I believe this repository is the only source of these schemas, and we do use them! Could somebody please refresh the copies in this repo? Or alternatively, if there's a better place to obtain them, that would also be great to know about.

Research direction

Start by locating the AppxManifest XSD schema copies in this repository and determine whether an authoritative newer source exists. Compare the current schemas with that source, including the missing uap17 namespace, and confirm that the refreshed copies cover the newer additions and remain usable by the repository's consumers.
