Jeremy, Aaron, Ron, DanBri, and everybody, The test data that Art collected... Test cases for parseType="Literal" Art Barstow (Mon, Oct 08 2001) http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2001Oct/0095.html shows that RDF implementations are pretty much all over the map on this literal stuff. That suggests, to me, that we should chuck it, like we did aboutEachPrefix... but only if nobody's using it. So... is anybody using it? At the ftf meeting http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/20010801-f2f/ you guys told us a little bit about how folks are using RDF... would you please collect some uses cases/test cases that show how folks expect to use parsetype="Literal"? Then I think we can decide, as a WG, what the n-triples form should be (or whatever measure of interoperability we choose...). I suppose, in addition to the tests art came up with, there's an example in the RDF spec: <rdf:Description xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/metadata/dublin_core#" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-mathml" rdf:about="http://mycorp.com/papers/NobelPaper1"> <dc:Title rdf:parseType="Literal"> Ramifications of <apply> <power/> <apply> <plus/> <ci>a</ci> <ci>b</ci> </apply> <cn>2</cn> </apply> to World Peace </dc:Title> <dc:Creator>David Hume</dc:Creator> </rdf:Description> -- http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-rdf-syntax-19990222/#examples Jeremy, as owner of #rdfms-literal-is-xml-structure, I'd like you to show what the n-triples form of that document should be. I've got a proposal, involving exploding it out as infoset properties... I think I'll work out the details and put the results on the table. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/
