Dan,

I think an effort like this is a great idea.  However,
given the relatively large list of recorded issues at:

  http://www.w3.org/2000/03/rdf-tracking/

and:

  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-interest/2000Sep/0240.html

I wonder if such an effort would be premature.  That is, 
given that the "resolution" of some of these issues is
likely to result in changes/clarifcations in the RDF specs,
it seems like the issues should be "formally" addressed 
first.
