This seems unrelated to Giuseppe's prior questions, unless I 
misunderstood those; I'm afraid I'm missing context.  I can only 
understand your mention of Protégé if your question is about how we 
manage the vocabularies used in our software.  Or do you mean something 
else?

To answer my initial interpretation, we maintain them by hand, but it's 
really up to the individual developer.

It's RDF/XML (not XML/RDF) because it's a serialization of an RDF graph 
to XML form - I'd say we rarely work with that specific serialization, 
it's not very user friendly.  But I believe you're repeating your first 
question?  If not, please clarify.

Referrers list the subject/property from statements that use the 
resource in question as the triple's object.

What attached PDF?

CSS is CSS.  Some browsers implement parts better than others and vise 
versa.

Do you have a link to what specifically you're referring to in our bank? 
  Is it worth filing a bug on the behavior you're observing?

Thanks, nice to know.  Is that available on the web?
