Thanks very much for sending this to the list.  Here are a
couple quick comments:

1) It would be nice to show use of literal values as well as
instances, perhaps retrieving the license plate number of
the Red Car.

2) RDF doesn't (currently) use QNames in its attribute
values, so

  rdf:resource="rdf:type"

doesn't produce the results you probably want.  You can
expand the URI or use XML entities, e.g.

  rdf:resource="&rdf;type"

Even if you're defining your own XML-based language, you
probably want to be consistent with RDF if you're using its
namespace.

	Mike
