It seems right in spirit. But, afaict, it's just a "global" stylesheet. Which is fine, I suppose, but I was kind of hoping for a "macro" like style sheet that would be evaluated "In a context". I.e., only on the fragment to which it was attached. But whatever :) I don' t think I'm *committed* to that, and maybe it makes the syntax nastier or the sheets nastier...who knows :) The missing bit of course is making RDF/XML sheet aware so that RDF/XML parsers do the right thing (i.e., process the stylesheet or die) before parsing. Cheers, Bijan.
