Ruby here is a form of annotation used in Japanese, and not a programming language. It means that what is a plain string in English or French may have XML markup in it in Japanese. Some metadata formats - including RDF - may have difficulty representing "mixed content" - strings with a mix of text and markup, like an HTML paragraph. Sorry for any confusion!
