Drools planner: nurse rostering scenario configuration with competition.xsd

Question

I am modelling a personnel rostering based on Drools Planner Nurse Rostering.

I am toying with the *.xml samples based on the competition.xsd schema. The schema is in general very clear, but there are so many configuration parameters that I am not sure how to properly configure each of them. For instance, I cannot figure out how to correctly set up the patterns and their usage in the contracts tags.

The aim is to correctly model my scenario .xml file in order to avoid unnecessary contraints and to correctly weight the useful ones.

So, I am looking for some detailed references about the competition.xsd schema, and maybe a tutorial about the usage of the schema.

@Geoffrey. Maybe you meant [this other post](http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Nurse-rostering-configuration-with-competition-xsd-schema-td4020433.html#a4020437) ;). Anyway I am going to close this question. Still I don't mean to remove it, couse I think can be useful for someone. — Alberto De Caro, Oct 24 '12 at 14:27
