Now that we're not using the RDF/XML subset idea, I was looking at the
designs of other WGs (with a lot more XML expertise), and the first
thing I noticed was their answer to How to Assign an IRI to something:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<model {...namespace declarations...} version="1.0">
<identity>
<name>http://www.university.example.org/sml/models/Sample/InterDocReferences</name>
</identity>
...
Within the <identity> element, they also allow "version", "displayName",
and "description" (ie, some metadata).
I also note that they DON'T namespace qualify the "version" attribute.
I consider this attribute equivalent to "dialect"; dialects are
essentially named versions (so they don't have to be sequential).
(I'm not proposing we re-open any issues here, but gathering info for
when/if we re-vamp the XML syntax.)
