Re: N3 and N-Triples (was: RDF in HTML: Approaches)

I think Bill makes an important point here.  What makes RDF/XML 
complicated isn't just the use of XML.  A direct serialization syntax 
for triples of URIs (allowing literals and node identifiers in 
appropriate places) in XML would be extremely straightforward;  verbose, 
perhaps (depending on the details) but straightforward.
