Not so!  In Cloud computing, for example, all the data is stored in XML.
A platform has a set of machines which is represented as a collection of URIs,
Machines have many attributes, such as ports, that are, again, represented
as collections on URIs.  I think of this as Linked Data.  Resources identified
by URIs and collections of URIs.  I don't think it matters whether the syntax is
XML, RDF or JSON.

If the LDP WG ends up creating a recommendation on how to deal with collections
of URIs in REST, for example, that will apply to XML, RDF and JSON
