[dsdl-comment] Are these two NVDL documents equivalent? (one uses a mode, the other doesn't use a mode)

Hi Folks,

Consider the following two NVDL documents.

This version has a single mode containing rules for namespace A and
namespace B:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rules startMode="start"
       xmlns="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/nvdl/ns/structure/1.0">
    <mode name="start">
        <namespace ns="http://www.A.org">
            <validate schema="A.xsd" />
        </namespace>
        <namespace ns="http://www.B.org">
            <validate schema="B.rng"/>
        </namespace>
    </mode>
</rules>

This version doesn't use modes. It has a rule for namespace A and
namespace B.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rules xmlns="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/nvdl/ns/structure/1.0">
    <namespace ns="http://www.A.org">
        <validate schema="A.xsd" />
    </namespace>
    <namespace ns="http://www.B.org">
        <validate schema="B.rng"/>
    </namespace>
</rules>

Are the two NVDL documents equivalent?

/Roger
