Instance validation/Format types into main specification about json-schema-spec HOT 2 CLOSED

I know a few people weren't too thrilled about splitting the documents up, but the way I re-arranged it I think makes a lot more sense than the three documents did before, and as far as I can tell people think this makes sense:

1. JSON Schema core defines the application/schema+json media type and the bare minimum of how to handle it
2. Additional documents define vocabularies that you can use in an application/schema+json document

So this is much more modular than it is in draft-04.

I'll hopefully publish a draft soon here, and if it still doesn't make as much sense let's investigate if merging some of the new drafts back together helps things.

Just to be contrary ;-) as someone who started using JSON Schema with draft 4, I don't find the three-document approach confusing, and in fact appreciate having the aspects of the system split up in that way to produce smaller, more cohesive documents.
