Hi,

I think that the BNF might be just a bit cleaner if you "moved" the typedNode
from [6.3] to [6.2], as follows:

[6.2]
obj ::= description | container | typedNode

[6.3]
description ::= '<rdf:Description' idAboutAttr? bagIdAttr? propAttr* '/>'
              | '<rdf:Description' idAboutAttr? bagIdAttr? propAttr* '>'
                    property* '</rdf:Description>'

As far as I can tell, there is no place except [6.2] where the "description"
non-terminal is referenced.

My $0.02
