http://www.w3.org/TR/semantic-interpretation/ The working draft itsself specifies an ECMAScript object format that is used to represent input grammars that can be accepted by systems. I dont think this is particularly relevant to DAWG as-is, but it references another working group output, EMMA (http://www.w3.org/TR/EMMAreqs/, http://www.w3.org/TR/emma/) which is a potential output format for SISR, is ntended to include a query language, and seems very relevant to DAWG at first glance. They have concerns about RDF efficiency (and the lack of a query language), so there are 3 distinct syntaxes for EMMA docuements, one pure EMMA-schema XML, one mixed EMMA+RDF and one pure RDF. Hopefully we can help with the last one by providing a query language for the RDF documents and they suggest that the mixed XML+RDF documents can be translated into pure RDF with an XSLT transform, though I couldn't find a pointer to a transform document. The native query language for EMMA is XPointer based, but it works over thier XML schema only, not addressing the embedded RDF fragments. - Steve
