Some examples where this might be feasible are RSS 1.0, DOAP and the FOAFnet 'profile' of FOAF (not sure of the status of the last one - it was an offshoot/fringe thing). All of these (can) have constrained syntax which should allow pure-XML authoring/validation. See also : "Using RDFS or OWL as a schema language for validating RDF" http://esw.w3.org/mt/esw/archives/000048.html and "Missing isn't Broken": http://rdfweb.org/mt/foaflog/archives/000047.html [btw, until very recently I was using my blog as a searchable bookmark manager for remembering links like this, but http://del.icio.us now seems a better fit] Cheers, Danny. -- http://dannyayers.com
