Serialization is a different issue, butI was not suggesting to use a 
different syntax than XML/RDF (I'm all for having an XML/RDF 
serialization, this is the official syntax ;-)). I like also the 
canonical representation of XMP, I didn't say we should not stick on that.
I just say that when there are _multiple_ ways of encoding structured 
lists, we should pick one (from the canonical representation) to solve 
the ambiguity. Therefore, I don't see what are the remaining issues of 
creating an rdf schema of the XMP metadata model. Could you point me one?
