            The Generic Darwin Core schema defining all property terms as global elements.
            
            Domain classes are not defined here, but in a separate schema (tdwg_dwcclasses.xsd) with the same namespace.            
            There are two ways in which references to domains can be defined:
            a) through an abstract base term anyXXXTerm, which is derived from the type dwc:anyPropery and which all properties
               for that domain use as their substitution group. If you refer to dwc:anyXXXTerm in your schema, you will be able 
               to reference any of the terms, but it will be impossible to create a sequence of all terms occurring only once. 
            b) through a group of elements called XXXTerms, which reference properties exactly once as a sequence. 
               This group can be used to refer to all the domain properties only once. In order to make a property required, you 
               must create your own group referring to the individual dwc terms. 
               If you want to specify every term once at most and in any order, you will also have to refer to the individual dwc 
               term yourself - a limitation of the xs:all model.
