Markus, I posted something on my blog about it (had been working on
the Atom stuff anyway):

I suppose in a nutshell my argument is that the three-level structure
and flat typing is still not very, um, relational. Also, I think there
are some recent developments around syndication technologies in
particular, as well as RDF, that make it pretty important to fit new
formats into those methods of modelling data, identifying things
(increasingly using uris) and so forth.

That said, if all you're interested in is improving RISX, then it
seems you're on the right track. But even so, I think you can bring it
closer in line with my suggestions.
