This is what will carry Flickr annotations, and they do it with Atom and RDF. They made a few mistakes. One of them centered around the purpose of atom:id. That means *smart people miss the point*, because it's a subtly different than RSS. I think starting the example atom:id with "urn:uuid" instead of "vemmi://"; would help quite a bit.


Care to elaborate on what the problem was?

"<id>...</id> Authorative location of original copy or published copy of image.


      <id>http://rowlff.dotgeek.org/plugin/demoimage.jpg</id>

When used within an <entry> tag, <id> defines the unique URL to to that <entry>. Note the "1@" in the following <id> tag:

      <id>http://rowlff.dotgeek.org/plugin/[EMAIL PROTECTED]</id>"


Basically, they think atom:id is similar to <guid isPermaLink="true">.
