So, congrats to Leo and Richard: Cool URIs for the Semantic Web is a W3C Working Draft, now. They basically discuss URI design issue regarding both humans and machines. Why do we care? Well, let’s have a look into the document:
The solutions described in the following apply to deployment scenarios in which the RDF data and the HTML data is served separately, such as a standalone RDF/XML document along with an HTML document. The metadata can also be embedded in HTML, using technologies such as RDFa [...], microformats and other documents to which the GRDDL [...] mechanisms can be applied. In those cases the RDF data is extracted from the returned HTML document.
What is your opinion? Do you have practical experiences — that is: no toy setup
— in designing URIs in an XHTML+RDFa environment?
