Re: Comments on RDF/A Syntax (Editor's Draft 27 October 2005)

Mark,

Can you predict how many RDF triples, from all XML documents of the world 
today, you can obtain using your approach?

If I did not know RDF/XML, I would not use those RDF/XML facilities in my 
XML files. If I know RDF/XML, I have my metadata prepared in RDF proper. 
Simply using GRDDL helps a lot from extracting RDF triples from existing XML 
documents.
