True. As soon as one starts depending on namespaces,
one has pretty much said "web only" for the XML.
That is not a smart or forward looking move. It
is 90sThink. Namespaces should not be core, but
it is likely they will be. It is one way to ensure
that RDF gets a bigger niche.

avoiding the use of namespaces where possible. I don't think that it's
appropriate to condemn them to using a non-XML parser, or am I missing something?
