Andreas, I agree with Kev -- Ralph is concerned about making major
changes to the scope of XEP-0071 when it is close to a Final spec.
However, developing a new spec for RDFa over XMPP makes sense. In
fact, I think it would be simpler than XEP-0071 because in XEP-0071 we
had to define a new Integration Set using XHTML modularization (which
I found kind of confusing at the time), whereas the W3C has already
defined RDFa for us using XHTML modularization, so all we need to do
is define a wrapper element for sending RDFa over XMPP. In fact, I
chatted with someone else about this very topic last week, so I will
introduce you to him offlist in case you want to work together.
