... Someday, Jess will support RuleML -- this is one of the major pieces of work planned for Jess 7.0. But right now, no. One of the neatest things about XML is XSLT -- the pattern language that lets you transform one form of XML into another. If you use your own format now, and eventually want to transform it into RuleML, it will be possible to write an XSLT stylesheet to do the conversion. Therefore, there's not much danger associated with using your own format. ...
We've done some work on translating rules in and out of Jess from a form of RuleML -- see http://daml.umbc.edu/sweetjess/. You can download the components of this system, which is built on prior work by Benjamin Grosof. A preliminary paper on this system is:
