Notes:

There are some inconsistencies between the examples and the published XSD.

#1: In all of the examples, <dialogid> is the child of <msml>, but the XSD only accepts it if it's the child of <result>.

For example, this is wrong:
<msml version="1.1">
<result response="200"/>
<dialogid>conn:jd87dfg4h/dialog:12345</dialogid>
</msml>

This would be the correct one, according to the XSD:
<msml version="1.1">
<result response="200">
<dialogid>conn:jd87dfg4h/dialog:12345</dialogid>
</result>
</msml>

#2: The XSD say the <event> tag must have children, but there are examples where it doesn't have. The 'minOccurs' attribute in the regarding <xs:choice> is not explicitly specified in msml-core.xsd, but the default value is '1', so there must be at least one <name> and one <value> element, in sequence.

Ref: https://www.w3schools.com/xml/el_choice.asp

For example, this is invalid:
<event name="msml.dialog.exit" id="conn:jd87dfg4h/dialog:12345" />

#3: This is also related to <event>. In the XSD, there is a regular expression specified for the contents of <value>. This regexp does not accept the colon ':' character, but the examples contain this character.

For example, this is not accepted because of the colon character:
<event name="msml.conf.asn" id="conf:example">
<name>speaker</name>
<value>conn:hd93tg5hdf</value>
</event>
