The namespace URI for treetriples is <http://djpowell.net/schemas/treetriples/1/>

This URI is also an XHTML page which uses eRDF in the HEAD to make the assertion:

S: <http://djpowell.net/schemas/treetriples/1/>
P: <http://www.w3.org/2003/g/data-view#namespaceTransformation>
O: <http://djpowell.net/schemas/treetriples/1/xslt/tt2rdfxml.xsl>

Therefore any GRDDL agents will know that treetriples documents with
the <http://djpowell.net/schemas/treetriples/1/> namespace can be
transformed into RDF/XML using that XSLT transform.

It is a bit like this example <http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl/#ns-bind>,
but rather than have RDF/XML as the namespace document, it has eRDF,
which is itself GRDDLable, and therefore does the same job.


The result is that GRDDL-enabled software such as:
<http://librdf.org/parse> can take a treetriples file such as
<http://djpowell.net/schemas/treetriples/1/examples/feed-t2.xml> and
parse it, without requiring any GRDDL annotations on the instance
document.
