Exactly, RDDL promotes a wrong interpretation of namespaces that would create more mess, than it was before RDDL existance. And it works exactly *against* the goals that I had when starting a long discussion on Namespaces one year ago. My only contribution to RDDL was a desire to decrease the mess with Namespaces, and RDDL is increasing the mess. RDDL is using my name as a 'Contributor' to a document that works *against* my ideas. I guess it is yet another joke. To my surprise, I found that position of XSLT WG ( look at http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform , the content they provide there ) makes plenty of sense, because it promotes the *correct* view on Namespaces. I take back my words about 'place a readable documentation at the end of the URI', because it is bad design and it is more misleading to people than current http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform is. I'm implementing a design that would be consistent with the view on Namespaces that is promoted by XSLT WG ( and would also fix everything that is broken in RDDL ) and that enforced me to look at RDDL more closer. I was surprised. It calls 'validation' a Purpose, but 'software module' is also a 'Purpose' Should be 'Nature' actually. That's no longer funny. ----------------------- I would love to see a resume of Jonathan Borden. My resume and resumes of many other contributors to this thread are published on the web, but who is Jonathan Borden and what has he done besides publishing some XML-related stuff on a bunch of websites and mailing lists is not clear. 1. The insulting letters that I got from him just for saying the word 'RDDL' 2. weak data modeling skills 3. usage of 'me and other respected XML people' 4. missing resume this all makes an image of very junior person, perhaps some student? If Jonathan Borden is a student, I would like to know that. I tried finding his resume, but the only thing I found was that he is a rude person who insults people who are unknown to him, like there is no tomorrow : http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/200004/msg00600.html Let's play fair and see who is a 'nasty flamer' here. Never in my *life* ( and my life in mailing lists / Fido has 10+ years ) did I responded to newbies' letter in the way which is illustrated above. Also there is a bunch of photos where he does not look like a student, but still... I want to know more about the person who is feeding the world with this 'RDDL' thing. As I've said before - *my* resume *is* available on the web. This kind of investigation is not typical for myself, I rarely check people's background, because I don't give a [expletive deleted] about who the person is and what words do the person use, what is the color of his skin e t.c. if the person talks sense. However, the aggressive behavior of this particular person together with weak analytical skills ( what he has written in this thread is mostly misleading, self-contradicting nonsense, mixed with 'jokes' ) enforced me to try understanding who this person is and the results of that quick 'investigation' are more than strange. Dear Jonathan Borden. Do you exist in the real life, or you are a virtual image, perhaps created by some teenager punk? Is there any way to get more information about your background in computers? I can gladly provide you with the similar information about myself that could be of your interest. For example, my homepage is http://www.pault.com and it has my resume published. Many thanks. Rgds.Paul.
