A qname is a tuple of URI and local name. I don't see that one can be a substitute for the other in the general case. For specific cases where the RDF assumption is valid that namespace URIs end with a # and that the URI reference formed by concatenating the namespace URI and the localname is a valid URI reference, you could make that equivalence. -- Chris mailto:chris@w3.org
