Misha,

I remember intercepting with you in a few threads back in the early Atom
   Syntax days, but I hadn't looked a NewsML in a while. It took me
forever (not really, but more than I'd wish it had) to find a NewsML
sample online. I tried submitting it to the W3C RDF Validator and
checked the option (RDF not enclosed with RDF tags) but it failed to
validate.

Could you please specify in which way you mean is compatible with SW?
(Of course besides the fact that it can be converted to RDF through an
XSLT).
