...has some pointers to existing RDF parsers in XSLT. I don't know 
which is the most complete. OWL is a layer of abstraction above what
you'll get from these parsers. I would expect to be in a world of pain
if trying to do OWL in XSLT, ...but I guess it's possible :)

For basic parsing of RDF/XML (and hence OWL) into triples, XSLT should 
be OK, if perhaps a bit slow in most environments.
