But aren't http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema and http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema# completely equivalent when it comes to using them for XML Schema processing? A Schema with # on the end of it should be treated exactly the same as one without... but in RDF you concatenate the properties on to the end, so they become different. In other words, I think that using the XSD namespace with a # on the end of should be allowable in XSD. Is it? Do processors still grok it correctly? > If RDF has a different notion of namespaces than the rest of XML, It just has an odd method of using them... but you *cannot* restrict people to using a few special characters at the end of their RDF namespaces, because you could have alphanumeric strings that when concatenated, still point to the correct URI representation of a property. *Rule*: A namespace is any URI allowable in the XML Names specification. -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
