I have put together a proposed resolution for rdfms-difference-between-ID-and-about in hopes that we may resolve the issue in this weeks telecon. ** Resolution Use of rdf:ID is equivalent to use of the equivalent rdf:about attribute, obtained by prefixing the # character and URI-encoding non-ASCII characters. The following phrase and other similar text is removed from M&S specification as an error: The ID attribute signals the creation of a new resource This decision is based on section 6 of the specification which states: The ID attribute, if specified, provides the URI fragment identifier for c. along with a large body of implementation experience. ** Test Cases The text of the resolution, along with a set of test cases are available at: http://www.blogspace.com/rdf/rdfms-difference-between-ID-and-about/ Comments are greatly appreciated, -- "Aaron Swartz" | Blogspace <mailto:me@aaronsw.com> | <http://blogspace.com/about/> <http://www.aaronsw.com/> | weaving the two-way webReceived on Wednesday, 27 June 2001 23:46:41 EDT
