Re: Atom Triples Internet Draft

interesting. i already create triples out of Atom (pretty much how raptor does) by expanding the xml element names to their full URIs by concatenaing with the xmlns prefix


which brings me to my biggest gripe with Atom, which is 'what is the URI for the item'

think i settled on the *:?id element if it exists, then *:?guid, then link rel=alternate, then link rel=self

its compounded by the fact that id is most common and likely to exist, and MArk Pilgrim has convinced 80% of peopel to use unresolvable URNs/Tag-uris for this


i guess i should mail Mark and ask huim to change his recommendation to use resolvable URIs..
