IMHO, xml:lang in RDFa can be quite dangerous. People sometimes put this attribute in html element automatically, resulting in unintended language tags such as: <> dc:date "2009-01-30"@ja . <#me> foaf:knows [ foaf:nick "danbri"@ja ] . Of course, we can add datatype attribute to date string, and another xml:lang="en" to nickname phrase, but I'm afraid it requires too much effort for ordinary authors. I'd rather recommend to use only lang attribute (no xml:lang) in *html element*, unless the author clearly understand what kind of literal values will be generated. -- @prefix : <http://www.kanzaki.com/ns/sig#> . <> :from [:name "KANZAKI Masahide"; :nick "masaka"; :email "mkanzaki@gmail.com"].
