xml-dev - Binary Data in XML?

[Mike Sample <msample@opentext.com>]

Is there a standard way to include binary data directly within an
XML/RDF document? Or must one use indirection or ad-hoc encoding such
as:

  <foo href="http://somewhere.com/the_data.bla"/>

or
  <foo enc="hex">A103EF92B7</foo>


Thanks,

Mike Sample
