Also, I reviewed issue-mt-ns and found that we'd have to re-open the issue to add a rule, since our 2007-02-07 decision was that "the current rules address issue-mt-ns". http://www.w3.org/2004/01/rdxh/spec#issue-mt-ns So rather than add any normative rule boxes, I just added this paragraph after the existing rule, citing* a test case that we recently approved: [[ Note that while an application/rdf+xml media type is one indication that a document is RDF/XML, section 7.2.1 Grammar start of [RDFX] leaves open "other means" by which an RDF/XML document may be identified. For the purposes of the rule above, root element whose local name is RDF and whose namespace URI is http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns# is such a means. For a case in point, see the grddlonrdf-xmlmediatype test case. ]] -- http://www.w3.org/2004/01/rdxh/spec v1.252 * v1.252 cites GRDDL test cases normatively -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
