In my paper Resource Profiles I talked about XML documents made up of XML formats specific to the resource being talked about. This has not been invented and is known to the wider community under the heading of 'microformats'. Examples include the 'rel' tags used in links (especially in Atom), XFN and similar personal metadata (hcards), embedded calendaring markup (hcalendar), and more.
