[closed] chas-01 request to add aboutEachPrefix from Dave Beckett on 2003-04-07 (www-rdf-comments@w3.org from April to June 2003) (original) (raw)

Charles,

You made a last call comment captured in

The RDF Core WG has resolved

to reject this comment on the grounds that the original reasons for removal remain valid:

We had good feedback that it lived badly in RDF and as such was little implemented or used.
It broke layering by looking inside URIs rather than dealing with them as identifiers.
Felt more like a RDF/XML syntax thing than part of the RDF model and as such it mixed badly with triples.
Worked badly with rdf:bagID - the interactions were never well understood.
Experienced practitioners recommended against using it.

Please reply to this email, copying www-rdf-comments@w3.org indicating whether this decision is acceptable.

Dave
