/ Paul Prescod <paul@prescod.net> was heard to say:
| Beyond XHTML, I think it is necessary to be able to say:
|
| <cv:doctor
| cv:doctorate="http://.../university"
| cv:specialty="http://.../"
| cv:homepage="http://.../"/>
|
| Basically I should get the benefits of standardized link recognition
| without contorting my vocabulary around XLink at all.
So stand-off markup is a requirement in your view. No global attribute
names, no namespaced element names, only something that puts all of
the link descriptions "out of line".
Others have the view that links are sufficiently fundamental that they
should be inline, recognizable in the surface syntax without a
specific schema or other external description.
That's an impasse.
Be seeing you,
norm
