I think this is input to the NewsML 2 design, intended to minimize confusion when people want to transfer their knowledge from NewsML 2 to SPARQL and back. It's not clear that the TAG is proposing anything, by the way; I don't think the chair put a question to the group. As to mutual incomprehension, yes, it seems a higher-bandwidth medium is in order... more on that separately. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
