Are you inventing new syntax here as well? If you meant that the XSLT "extractor" would generate legal (i.e., current) RDF syntax your example does not work: it translates to two triples (an instance of type "author" and a property "name" of that instance with value "Aaron"). More generally, I feel that although a simpler, more intuitive syntax would be a good idea, transforming *any* XML to "something like RDF" is somewhat dangerous unless you make sure that any intended semantics is preserved. Syntactic transformation is only half of the battle...
