It's worth mentioning that RDFa makes it pretty trivial (compared to
other RDF serialisations) to mark up multiple triples which differ only
in their predicate.

e.g.

<p xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/terms/"
   xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/">
 By <a about=""
       rel="foaf:maker dc:creator :author"
       rev="foaf:made :made"
       href="#i"
 >me</a>.
</p>

which creates the following five triples:

 @prefix dc:   <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> .
 @prefix foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/> .
 @prefix xhv:  <http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/vocab#> .

 <> foaf:maker <#i> .
 <> dc:creator <#i> .
 <> xhv:author <#i> .
 <#i> foaf:made <> .
 <#i> xhv:made <> .
