Schema for .NET Profile service Copyright (c) 2001 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. This element encapsulates the content document for this service. This element establishes a global cache scope for the service and contains other root-level system attributes for this instance of the service. This element encapsulates and defines the basic myProfile types for the Microsoft® .NET Profile service. This element specifies the preferred language code of the identity encoded using ISO 639 language codes or ISO 3166 country codes, as defined by RFC 1766. The purpose of this value in this service is to indicate the languages understood by this identity. When manipulating localizable content, choose from an appropriate language preference. When encountering localized content not falling within this set, the software should translate into a language understood by this set. This element supplies the base time zone preference for this entity. This element encapsulates a name associated with the identity. An identity can have multiple names associated with it. These name nodes are not intended to be used to store screen or other electronic names, but rather to store a name commonly used for the entity. Names contain five parts and should be combined in proper order, with spaces separating the parts and empty content parts excluded.
