I defined it as the set of canonical XML documents with rdf-wrapper as the root tag. Perhaps there is a slight lack of clarity in that I am talking about Platonic documents rather than actual documents. The "canonical" word sort of makes that an angels on pinhead discussion rather than one with any real content. I don't know whether anyone would care to argue whether a document is or is not an XSD string. I would think not ... an xsd:string is a sequence of unicode code points, whereas a document is a sequence of bytes (a canonical XML document is a sequence of bytes in the UTF-8 charcater encoding). > Can one create a synonym for rdf:XMLLiteral, and if so does it invoke > the same datatyping rules?? > The question is ... rdf:XMLLiteral owl:sameIndividualAs <eg:dt> . _:a <eg:a> "a"^^<eg:dt> . hmmmm .... which is easier? we could prohibit it.
