The draft is generated from an RFC2629 XML file which contains no schema 
fragments or examples. The schema fragments are generated from the full 
schema. To create the text version, the schema, fragments, and examples 
are inserted in a SAX pipeline, and xml2rfc.tcl generates the draft from 
the resulting document. Since the schema and examples are stored in 
separate files, it's easy to check them with a command-line validator. I 
use James Clark's Jing[0].
