Re: Your comments on RDFConcepts & Semantics (ISSUE-145, ISSUE-147, ISSUE-148, ISSUE-159)

Hi David,

 From your response I gather the following:

- ISSUES 145, 147 and 159 are already resolved or on the verge of being 
resolved
- ISSUE-148 still is a stumbling block from your perspective

Looking at ISSUE-148 it doesn't appear to be a RDF 1.1 design issue, 
more a wording issue. To put it  practically: would a test change based 
on its outcome? If the answer to that question is "no", then I would 
suggest to postpone the exact resolution of this issue until CR. That 
would greatly help our timing (there is publication moratorium early Nov 
due to TPAC).

Thanks for considering this.

Best,
Guus
