>> However, the more attributes we add to a widget, the more we have the possibility that multiple attributes can reasonably have values of the same type. Instead of addressing this situation by insisting on the creation of a new data type for every attribute (or for those attributes deemed most common for some purposes) I question whether the "datatype as only clue" approach itself scales well.
The punch line is that I have serious reservations about a notation that leans heavily on datatypes (and large doses of assumption about the most likely meaning or most frequent use) to specify complex artifacts. << Well put! That was the first thing I questioned as I started working with VID. Too much implicit information makes for assumptions that don't scale. - Kemp -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.
