XML Schema is about constraining the surface XML. RDF Schema is about constraining triples (the relationship to XML Schema depends entirely on the serialization syntax) My view, as I have expressed before, is that RDF should not provide a serialization syntax the way it currently does. It should provide: 1. the triple model [done] 2. a schema for constraining the model [done] 3. a means for describing, in an XML schema, how instances of that schema map to RDF triples James
