I don't think that makes sense, clearly, "it is difficult or impossible to validate documents that contain RDF/XML using XML Schemas or DTD's" and "the syntax of RDF/XML is too unwieldy for use", which are the main challenges addressed by <http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2004/rdf-a>. Also note that SVG does not use RDF/XML for meta data, unlike XHTML 1.x or XHTML 2.x SVG is an extensible format and you are free to decide how to encode additional information in SVG graphics, you can use RDF/XML, you can use a well-designed "microformat", you can even use Notation3 if you like. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
