Info Model 2005-06-20

[Renato Iannella <renato@nicta.com.au>]

Dear all, attached is the draft EDXL Information Model and Semantics 
document.
It provides an Information Model (to supplement the original data model)
and uses ISO11179 model to define the semantics for each element.

I have also tried to name the elements based on their role (eg External 
Object)
rather than their data type (eg URI). I have tried to include the 
outcomes
from the recent discussions as well (eg spatial refs, list terms).

I do expect a lot more discussion on the content, and please don't 
assume
that the current model, elements, etc are in anyway final (or even 
close! ;-)


Cheers...  Renato Iannella
