I made a Schematron "screen-scraper" schematron-rdf (part of the freebie
Schematron Validator
at the Topologi website) that generates RDF from an instance and a
schema: the RDF triples
point to matched nodes in the original document.
This comes from my belief that RDF/XML is utterly wrong-headed: what is
needed is
a way to take any idiomatic XML and expose the triples in it.
One thing I have been thinking of is extending Schematron to allow this:
<rule context="x">
<relation path="@name" role="z" />
...
</rule>
would establish an RDF tiple.
