    Subject: RE: [emergency] <resourceDesc> (aka Issue #32)


    Hey, lets just change the word "typ"e to "kind" and maybe we'll lose 
    this whole question, eh? We should bear in mind how overloaded the 
    term "type" is. It depends on what standard or API you are working in 
    programmatically, and whether you are working to XML or RDF, too.
    
    Just a thought,
    Rex
