Re: [xml-dev] XLink 2.0 Requirements

Liam's messages still don't appear to be getting through via the list.  

Editorial addition: I strongly recommend that people take a look at
Liam's slides.  I disagree with his suggestions quite completely, but
it's very certainly worth the encounter.

I gave a talk at Extreme Markup about using a unified syntax for
representing relationships between resources, such as this example.

It might be a bit radical for many people though -- my suggestion
was to use a representation that happened also to be valid RDF.

You can see the slides I used at
http://www.holoweb.net/~liam/papers/2002-xmlr-extreme-markup-montreal/
with a very terse transcription.  (For those who were there, I have not
captured the scrolling green animation in full, sorry).

(wondering if this will make it out to xml-dev!)
