4.5 is the current Oasis standard.
As I said, either keep up or simply tell people where docbook is.
How many schemas are you going to try and manage?

Suggest, if you want to track docbook schemas, you point people
to the appropriate place, not fall n versions behind.

docbook schemas for the emacs package you're delivering?

You need to see nxml-mode... the original.
