Dan answer aligns with TBL view on the subject (also given in that article): - XML multiple possible tree representations, leading to several drawbacks, namely the mapping back issue (to the original OO model) Versus - the more compact RDF knowledge description. Well basically all is about triples and the OO concepts built on RDFS and later extended by DAML. One of the thinks that, at this stage, I think that RDF, and related stuff, can give us is the ability to deploy a generalized Web resource paradigm through the deployment of an "autonomous RDF resource" concept, i.e. RDF standards establish the syntax that enable data and its metadata to share the same support (e.g. encapsulated in a XML document). Inference mechanisms, by the data processing entities, are envisage based on the conveyed information. Regards, -- Pedro passis@dee.isep.ipp.pt | Tel. +351 22 8340500 Ext. 1712
