[occi-wg] OCCI XML scheme status?

[Gary Mazz]

Hi Gyula,

The XML versions of OCCI were developed prior to the XHTML5/RDFa 
discussions. I believe Andy's version was for the SLA at SOI project which 
uses XML. My version is being used as a staged prototype to help move 
toward the RDFa implementation. Since XHTML5/RDFa is a format similar 
enough to POX, the transition to and future adoption should be no more 
difficult than adopting pox.

I hope this explains why there are XML formats floating around. I can't 
speak for the SLA at SOI project, but as soon as the XHTML5/RDFa is 
completed, I will be abandoning my XML implementation.

cheers,
gary
