Hi Felix, Thanks for the prompt response. > I think there is a misunderstanding which we had before. See > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-media-annotation/2009Jun/thread#msg75 > and my explanations at > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-media-annotation/2009Jun/0096.html Thanks for citing those. Your reply in message 0096 was what I was talking about when I mentioned that: > >[...]the group sees the ma: properties - not as replacements > > for the DC and other properties, but as identifiers for mappings between > > equivalent properties in various formats. > Note also that the API we are working on, see > http://dev.w3.org/2008/video/mediaann/mediaont-api-1.0/mediaont-api-1.0.html > is even more specific than dublin core, e.g. in terms of return types. Thanks for citing this, I had not seen it before. I see that you are defining structures for return types, but commonly what is coming back is a DOMString or an array of DOMStrings and the semantics are still the simple Dublin Core semantics. I still don't see the need for a ma: namespace that hides properties from other namespaces behind an alias. Thanks for your consideration of this point.
