RE: [ws-rx-editors] RDDL rough draft

Title: RDDL rough draft

Attached is the latest version of the RDDL. Unless I hear some objections, this is the version I will present to the TC tomorrow.

 

The only significant change is the use of the http://www.rddl.org/ domain to describe the purposes of the related resources. I prefer this to the http://www.w3.org URIs because http://www.rddl.org/purposes actually resolves to a description of RDDL purposes whereas http://www.w3.org/2005/11/rddl/purposes doesn't resolve to anything.

 

I also see a problem with using a single RDDL document to contain descriptions of both the WS-RM and WS-RM Policy namespaces. When we add the links to the relevant schema we are, of course, going to have two links. Both of these links will have a "nature" of http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema and a "purpose" of http://www.rddl.org/purposes/#schema-validation. If I'm a stupid piece of software and I'm trying to hunt down the schema for "xmlns:rm=http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-rx/wsrm/200510", how do I disambiguate between the link to the WS-RM schema and the link to the WS-RM Policy schema? Obviously I could path-match the "href" attribute of the two link elements against my schema URI but, remember, I am a stupid piece of software.
