This is really exactly what I am trying to get across. A tremendous
amount of effort is being invested in RDF, on various levels (specing,
implementation, evangelism, etc.). This shouldn't cause XML schemas to
be poorer! I may be standing alone here (am I?), but to me it would be a
minor tragedy if XML schemas did not support strongly typed links at the
schema level.
