CTM - Issues for the WG 3 meeting in Montreal

QNames

The CTM QNames allow slashes, colons and hashes within the local part of the QName.

Are these characters compatible with TMQL? At least the slahes are very useful for CTM authors.

%prefix ex http://psi.example.org/

# Example for valid QNames:

ex:/a/path/here

ex:#fragment

ex:1:2:3

How should CTM reference other standards?

CTM vs. TMQL

Does CTM contain syntax constructs which are not compatible with TMQL?
