The best RDF-WG is going to do is make XMLLiteral less mandatory.

'Less mandatory'? :-)

I was writing a similar reply as this came in. It's horrible trying to
explain it, and it will be nice not to have to do that post-rdf 1.1.

I just rant about rdf:XMLLiterals a lot.

The definition isn't changing as far as I can remember. The lexical space is still c14n exclusive canonicalization with comments, with empty inclusiveNamespaces. I only know where to look because of helping people with their data. Never used the things myself.

There are so few real use cases - real XML data can't be put straight into RDF because of the canonicalization rules. e.g. People having problem with GML and RDF. Canonicalization software often isn't available at the point of data creation.

I'll have another coffee now.
