I suppose one interesting consequence is that RDF itself has a number of standard syntax expressions (such as in XML and JSON) and that we are also defining an expression of the ODRL data model in some of those same syntaxes (XML and JSON). In other words, we're not really trying to make ODRL-expressed-in-XML exactly the same as XML-generated-from-ODRL-expressed-in-RDF, are we? I think that we are attempting to create expressions of ODRL in each syntax in the most "natural" way, to fully take advantage of the benefits (and avoid the drawbacks) of each syntax and technology. Sure — I guess (and I think we're not a million miles from one another on this), I'd be generally happy to roll with JSON-LD until it's clear that it crosses that threshold into being too awkward/difficult/verbose as compared to a home-grown serialisation. (OTOH, RDF-as-XML is generally rather ugly, and of course the XML serialisation of ODRL already exists :) M. -- Mo McRoberts - Analyst - BBC Archive Development, Zone 1.08, BBC Scotland, 40 Pacific Quay, Glasgow G51 1DA, MC3 D6, Media Centre, 201 Wood Lane, London W12 7TQ, 0141 422 6036 (Internal: 01-26036) - PGP key CEBCF03E ----------------------------- http://www.bbc.co.uk This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
