> Yep. Don't build system dependencies into the core. > > On the other hand, can someone authoritatively say > what is core and what is a system profile for XML? It's a good question, and a hard one. I have no recourse to fall back to the old dodge that determining what is core is an art and not a science. My erotica is your porn. But there is certainly room for common sense here. As much as I find RDF I would be out of my skull to suggest mixing it into the core of XML. I would have hoped for such restraint from the application-specific data typing folks. I have no doubt they find their wizardry useful, and I'll even admit it is useful to me at times, but the whole is served better with proper modularity. -- Uche Ogbuji Fourthought, Inc. http://uche.ogbuji.net http://4Suite.org http://fourthought.com Track chair, XML/Web Services One (San Jose, Boston): http://www.xmlconference.com/ DAML Reference - http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/05/01/damlref.html RDF Query using Versa - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-think10/index.html XML, The Model Driven Architecture, and RDF @ XML Europe - http://www.xmleurope.com/2002/kttrack.asp#themodel
