The current state of affairs with respect to the RDFS entailment rules and the RDFS entailment lemma is not acceptable to me. The RDFS entailment rules are not a complete characterization of rdfs-entailment. The RDFS entailment lemma has been changed in a manner unacceptable to me. The most-natural reading of the current normative definition of RDF XML literals in RDF Concepts makes the RDFS entailment lemma false. Current discussion on the RDF Core working group involves a proposal that would undermine the well-definedness of rdfs-entailment between two RDF/XML documents. Numerous substantial and user-visible changes that affect the RDFS entailment rules and the RDFS entailment lemma have been made to the RDF specifications. These changes require an exhaustive and multi-party review that is permitted to raise new issues, including issues related to the changes and issues uncovered by the changes. Peter F.
