<div>I'm only just back from Australia and haven't completely caught up with Jim. FWIW the normal way we express ontologies is RDF/XML but I will explore the issues with Jim.</div>

<div>We had a very good session on Linked Open Data at eResearch - about 50 people came and we let the discussion take its own course. There were a number of people interested in RDF and the OREChem approach but in practice the major issues were all about Open Data and who owned what and released what/when/to_whom, etc.<br>

But, I understand your motivation here. Perhaps the use of the link/related facility in atom would make sense here. One could argue that the RDF XML representation is just a mirror copy of this representation of the aggregation, albeit in another format.<br>
