The reason for that is simply that it won't be very difficult to do, should we decide that it is needed.<BR/><BR/>As it stands at the moment, it's not completely clear that we do need to do this. The reason I say that is that in many ways RDFa is simply a question of <STRONG>interpretation</STRONG>; we've worked very hard to ensure that RDFa harmonises with normal HTML metadata practices, so you could say that HTML documents <EM>already</EM> contain RDFa. (See for example, <A HREF="http://rdfa.info/2006/06/08/rdfa-the-gentle-road-to-rdf/" REL="nofollow">RDFa: The Gentle Road to RDF</A>.)<BR/><BR/>But I wouldn't rule out having some mechanism that indicates that 'there's useful stuff in here', such as using @profile, for example. (Although it might save on server processing if you could indicate the presence of the metadata <EM>outside</EM> of the document, it would limit RDFa's usefulness; one of the major use cases of RDFa is the ability to publish a blog via something like Blogger and just have the RDFa 'work'.)<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the interest.<BR/><BR/>Best regards,<BR/><BR/>Mark Birbeck<BR/><BR/>CEO, x-port.net<BR/>w: <A HREF="http://skimstone.x-port.net/" REL="nofollow">http://skimstone.x-port.net/</A><BR/>b: <A HREF="http://internet-apps.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">http://internet-apps.blogspot.com/</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
