History request

Hi All,

I'm currently trying to find two bits of historical information about 
RDF and Namespaces.

1: A pointer to discussions where RDF moved from PICS-NG (essentially 
k/v object model) to triple based statements / graph
  - specifically interested to see if the model came first then collided 
with PICS NG to turn in to RDF/XML, or if the model came as a result of 
creating RDF/XML.

2: A pointer to the initial requirements for "Namespaces", it' my 
understanding that RDF required XML to have namespaces in order to be 
able to serialize RDF in XML, and I was interested to see the initial 
requirements.

TIA,

Nathan
