We're defining a language, not a software module, right? The first occurence of the term in http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-syntax-grammar/ is in the discussion of issues. It's not used anywhere in the spec. (Whew!) It doesn't occur at all in http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/ (whew!) > understand What does 'understand' mean? You can ask (and expect an answer from our specs) whether one RDF document simply entails another, or whether it rdfs-entails another. But our specs don't speak of 'RDF processors', let alone 'understand'. > the object of an rdf:type property as being an rdfs:Class (and hence understand what an rdfs:Class is)? > > (b) must an RDF processor that understands what an rdfs:Class is also > understand the rest of the RDFS vocabulary? > > > See: > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2002Aug/0173.html -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/Received on Friday, 23 August 2002 09:37:39 EDT
