RDFa
Raised by:
Ben Adida
Opened on:

Description:
Ivan requests that we drop CURIEs and opt for QNames at this point. Shane adds
that it's dangerous to base our specification on the CURIE spec, which itself is
not finished.

Related notes:

2007-08-16: resolved as: "RDFa does not use QNames for shortening URIs, as that is technically incorrect. We use the equivalent of CURIEs, exactly as SPARQL. We will include the definition of CURIES inline with the RDFa syntax, though we may eventually choose to refer to the CURIE doc instead."
