Nope, no interest in the namespace name at all - I'm interested in <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> and hence I dereference <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns> and hope to be informed about <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type>, preferably through a fragment #type. I'm not interested in <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns> or <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> per se, and the reason I said that I don't like ending RDF namespaces with # is precisely that - if the namespace was, for example <http://example.net/rdf/> then the uri to dereference would be <http://example.net/rdf/type> - not the namespace uri at all. -- Jon Hanna <http://www.hackcraft.net/> "…it has been truly said that hackers have even more words for equipment failures than Yiddish has for obnoxious people." - jargon.txt
