Not exactly new but still a good idea. One would be implementing a data dictionary similar to what one sees in report generators like Crystal Reports. len From: Paul Prescod [mailto:paul@prescod.net] Presumably there is some new kind of application that is enabled by the RDDL deployment. For instance it becomes possible for XML editors to give "friendly names" of elements or auto-discover datatypes. If your client app needs this new feature then it tries to dereference URIs it sees. If it doesn't, it just does string comparisons as today.
