Re: Re: mod_enclosures proposal

I've only had chance to skim, but I did notice a couple of points:

the crocodile version (for RSS 2.0!):

<enc:enclosure
enc:url="http://www.crocodile.org/sounds/matrosi.mp3"
enc:length="1939570"
enc:type="audio/mpeg" />

seems to suggest exactly the same RDF graph* as Suzan's version, the
only difference being the typing of the Enclosure node, which could
effectively be done through the RDFS anyway (wasn't this the same with
Ian Davis' version too?):

   <enc:enclosure>
     <enc:Enclosure>
       <enc:type>foo/bar</enc:type>
       <enc:length>65536</enc:length>
       <enc:url>http://foo.bar/baz</enc:url>
     </enc:Enclosure>
   </enc:enclosure>

So really the question is which version of the *syntax* is most likely
to be adopted by RSS-hackers..?

I'm puzzled by the RSS 1.0 "Literal syntax" example in the crocodile
doc, why should this stuff be treated as literal XML data rather than
first-class RDF nodes and arcs?

Cheers,
Danny.
