Hi Justin, As I mentioned on the tracker item, it would be really good if you could put together a proposal (perhaps as a document under your cellml.org member page) which describes exactly what it is you are proposing here. Something along the lines of what Andrew presented when putting forward the proposed refactoring of the code generation service. I'm really not sure how a "RDF parsing service" on its own is going to help meet the goals you describe.
I am also wondering exactly what you mean by an intermediate conclusion? Thanks, Andre.
