Hmm... that seems overly stilted, to me. Note that this sentence also starts the main spec.

Two names might refer to the same people, but if the authors are the same, there's just one of them, not two. > > * Is the RDF abstraction a "syntax"?

Resource Description Framework (RDF): Concepts and Abstract Syntax W3C Recommendation 10 February 2004 http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-concepts/ Note also... [[ Model Theory (n.) A formal semantic theory which relates expressions to interpretations. (The name 'model theory' arises from the usage, traditional in logical semantics, in which a satisfying interpretation is called a "model". This usage is often found confusing, however, as it is almost exactly the inverse of the meaning implied by terms like "computational modelling", so has been avoided in this document.) ]] -- http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-mt/#glossModeltheory -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
