RDF and XML Interoperability Community Group created

The RDF and XML Interoperability Community Group has been launched:
  http://www.w3.org/community/rax/

--------------------------------------------------

The goal of this group is to 1) identify application areas in which the
combined processing of XML and RDF data and tooling is beneficial; 2)
identify issues that hinder the joint usage of the two technology stacks
3) formulate best practices to resolve the issues or propose
standardization topics. The goal does not only take into account the
data representation formats XML and RDF, but all related technologies
(e.g. for XML: XSLT, XQuery; for RDF: RDF Schema, SPARQL) and selected
XML (e.g. OData) or RDF vocabularies. The group should be driven by
needs of industries that already deploy one or both technology stacks.
This will also cover adjacent technologies like JSON with respect to the
topics covered in this group. The outcome should focus not on a big
architecture of how to work with XML and RDF, but on small building
blocks (as best practices or standardization topics) that can be re-used
across industries and application scenarios.
