No, a datatype URI *is* an RDF URI Reference in RDF 2004, and since we replaced that term with “IRI”, we will have datatype IRIs in RDF 1.1. Retaining the term “datatype URI” around would be nonsense. They are not URIs. They never were URIs. Best, Richard [1] http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/wiki/Documents
