RE: [xri] POLL: Syntax 2.0 or 2.1

["Drummond Reed" <drummond.reed@cordance.net>]

Again, I want to make sure it's clear why this is such a big issue: the XDI
RDF model uses the "grammer" of global-xrefs. This "grammer" cannot be
duplicated (at least in any easy way I can figure out) by "going back" to
2.0 syntax.

So this issue is deep, deep, deep.

Yes. Xrefs can only appear within parentheses.
