LEAP items as XML

Part of LEAP 2.0

This kind of approach would be closest to previous attempts: IMS LIP, IMS ePortfolio, and UKLeaP. It would involve writing schemas for each "speclet", following the information models detailed elsewhere in these LEAP 2.0 pages.

A reasonable starting point for such an exercise would be to take the information models and schemas from UKLeaP and IMS ePortfolio, and prune them right back to the essentials. One could see this as an exercise in application profiling, though it is so radical that it's hard to see it as simply profiling.

When achieved, an XML schema could then have an associated GRDDL XSLT algorithm, so that files in that schema could be transformed automatically to appropriate RDF.

Does anyone want to put the case to do this here, or to volunteer?
