Re: [office-metadata] Question about the IRI of a RDF subject from an ODF document

[Bruce D'Arcus <bruce.darcus@OpenDocument.us>]

This is a good point to consider, Svante, but keep in mind the scope of 
xml:base is the document; in this case the RDF/XML document. So your 
pictures.rdf and content.xml can have different xml:base values if you 
like.

In any case, xml:base is one of those short-hands that I think is 
distracting. The main point, I think, is that Elias is saying that we 
need a base *subject* for the document.
