Thanks Nick!

One thing I neglected to add to the software grant was
https://github.com/BBN-D/ooxml-visio-schemas, which is required to run the
existing code.

I think though, that if POI were to adopt this code, that it would make more
sense to just integrate the correct XSD with the existing ooxml packages,
instead of creating a new one just for visio.

The PDF download page for the visio specification
(https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh645006%28v=office.12%29.aspx) says
"Regardless of any other terms that are contained in the terms of use for the
Microsoft website that hosts this documentation, you may make copies of it in
order to develop implementations of the technologies described in the Open
Specifications and may distribute portions of it in your implementations using
these technologies or your documentation as necessary to properly document the
implementation.".

Which is good. The XSD is in appendix A of the specification, and has a BSD
style license and "No right to create modifications or derivatives of this
Specification is granted herein."... but I assume the download page notice
takes precedence.
