In recent times, I've come to believe those characteristics aren't so clear anymore.Kingsley, Kingsley, Kingsley, you old thread hijacker you. ;) Best of luck, but for the record, I don't have a dog in that fight. As far as I'm concerned people can use RDF to mean whatever they want it to mean, as long as the software works. -Gregg
Gregg,There is an issue here that for whatever reasons simply keeps on getting lost. The question is simple: what are the unique characteristics of RDF? What does RDF do uniquely?
I actually believe RDF does have unique characteristics, but I am curious to see if mine are in alignment with views of others.
I really don't want RDF to become something that's based on a leap of faith, we can do much better than that :-)
