Now that's pedantry. I don't think RDF syntax is amenable to XML schemas of any variety (maybe with tons of co-occurrence constraints and a lot of open models?), and I certainly don't think RDF syntax in its present form should _ever_ be considered an example of how to write XML. If there's a contest for most generally perverse use of XML, RDF/XML is definitely on the short list. >Anyway the point is that there are XML vocabularies that have this >characteristic which unfortunately cannot be described by any of the >popular XML schema languages. It's questionable whether SOAP is actually an XML vocabulary, having banned DOCTYPE, but it's even more doubtful that such lousy ideas deserve to be allowed to infect other specifications.
