Re: What is RDFn?

That's an interesting read, but does not help matters.  In some sense it makes 
things worse.

If you read the body of the document (i.e., up to the appendixes) you get the 
distinct impression that RDFn is to support named triples, i.e., an RDF graph 
is a set of triples, each of which can have one or more names.  It is only 
when you get to the appendix that there is the idea that an RDF graph is 
something other than a set of triples.

But how this actually works is only given in examples.  There is nothing like 
the definitions in RDF Concepts and certainly nothing like the development in 
RDF Semantics and no definition of the changes required for SPARQL.  Without 
these sorts of definitions it is not possible to determine what RDFn really is.
