Hmm ... of course there *is* a way to turn "any old random XML" (AORX) into a *generalization* of the RDF data model. Let's say we do that by creating an AORX annotation of the XML as follows: 1) designate which elements are nodes, 2) assume the rest of the elements and attributes are arc labels, and 3) designate some elements or attributes as containing unique node ids. As long as we assume that the author of the XML actually put semantic meaning in his/her utterance and that they assert that a particular AORX annotation transforms their utterance into a DLG that preserves their semantic meaning, what's the harm in it? PS: There are a couple more rules that need to be added to the above. -- Seth Russell http://RobustAI.net/MyNetwork/index.html http://robustAI.net/MyNetwork/StickeyCyberMolecules.html Http://RobustAi.net/Ai/Conjecture.htm
