I recently came across the following paper, presented at the QL98
workshop:
http://www.w3.org/TandS/QL/QL98/pp/microsoft-serializing.html
There is a garish PowerPoint presentation of somewhat later vintage,
with the title "Serializing Graphs of Data in XML", that appears to be
the same in substance:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/xml/archive/WWW8DevDay.ppt
Both are also mentioned in this W3C-Note:
http://www.w3.org/1999/04/WebData
Has there been any public discussion of the "ideas" presented in the
QL98 paper? [I think the scheme(s) proposed - in particular, the
property => attribute mapping - classify safely somewhere between
clueless and hopeless, and so my concern is that something like this
could become a fait accompli. If it's too late, I suppose I don't
mind being informed about that too!:)]
