Which end of the hyperlink are we discussing? The use, within a News story, of a specified concept from a specified taxonomy, or the description of this concept on some Web page? The IPTC Standards (NewsML-G2, SportsML-G2, EventsML-G2, etc) are not (X)HTML-based. The Web page is, of course, (X)HTML. The issue, as I understand it, is not what is legal within the News story, but rather what is legal within the Web page.
