Re: XrML?

I think, what he means, is that there are many attempts out there
to solve the same problem. Most of those attempts use a given
semantics within angle brackets(XML). 

Renato suggested to use RDF, which is also with angle-brackets,
but has more constraints than pure XML.

But I agree, that it is funny to see the multiplication of
efforts, while in the workshop there were already voices
complaining about too many different initiatives, which are hard
to coordinate. 

Best,
