And those who want to use the namespace name to *indirectly* (by way of metadata, expressed in RDF or otherwise) locate information about the namespace, too. This is the group that my "new synthesis" proposal (aka "data URI" proposal) caters for. They must give up directly accessing the URI to learn anything (you just get the namespace name back as a text/plain document), but they can use the URI as a key to metadata. -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org Yes, I know the message date is bogus. I can't help it. --me, on far too many occasions
