-------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: Short briefing/background doc't regarding RDFa, prefixes and HTML Resent-Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2011 09:51:34 +0000 Resent-From: www-tag@w3.org Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2011 09:49:43 +0000 From: <Misha.Wolf@thomsonreuters.com> To: <ht@inf.ed.ac.uk>, <www-tag@w3.org> References: <f5bhbclv4tl.fsf@calexico.inf.ed.ac.uk> A reminder that the IPTC and its member News Agencies are using very widely the IPTC's alternative to CURIEs and QNames, called QCodes. The differences between CURIEs and QCodes are: - The QCode spec requires that the URI corresponding to the alias is a valid URI. The CURIE spec, IIRC, does not. - The QCode spec explicitly allows the right-hand side not to be a legal XML Name. I don't know what the CURIE spec says about this. - While the creators of RDFa stated that the current mechanism for alias definition is to be considered simply one of a set of possible mechanisms, I think that it is currently the only specified mechanism. We (the IPTC) rejected that mechanism as too verbose and created, instead, our catalog.
