Just relax, xforms:binding is already part of ODF the extension to a 
text field can be seen independently from our RDF approach and should be 
for this agreement.

Certainly we talk here only about the agreement we have to make progress.

The user got from a different RDF application his VCard XML written in 
RDF/XML document.
As the user wants to sent VCard RDF data to some server, he decided to 
use XForms technology to attach his VCard Data to the content the String 
"Schuster" in our case. ;-)
But if you dislike XForms, just think of a paragraph, where he wrote 
this string into.

As he wants to be sure, that the string in the content is correctly 
associated with RDF/XML string, what informations have to be stored as 
RDF attributes at the ODF element

Hopefully this description could help.

Have a nice week-end,
