xsd:duration RDF Semantics notes: “does not have a well-defined value space; this may be corrected in later revisions of XSD”
xsd:QName Requires an enclosing XML document context
xsd:ENTITY Requires an enclosing XML document context
xsd:ID For cross references within an XML document
xsd:IDREF For cross references within an XML document
xsd:NOTATION Not intended for direct use
xsd:IDREFS Sequence-valued; does not fit the RDF datatype model
xsd:ENTITIES Sequence-valued; does not fit the RDF datatype model
xsd:NMTOKENS Sequence-valued; does not fit the RDF datatype model

Notes

  • xsd:dateTimeStamp is new in XSD 1.1 and referenced by OWL2. Should we update the datatype map defined in RDF Semantics to include it?
  • The OWL2 and SPARQL documents both reference XSD 1 but include language to the affect that the references should be considered to references to XSD 1.1 once it becomes a recommendation. Should we do the same?
