Andy, RDF and Linked Data are not the same thing. There isn't an owl:sameAs relationship between these two entities. To push this overtly or covertly serves no beneficial purpose.

In the context of Linked Data It should be made very clear that RDF is: 1. an option 2. an implementation detail. > > Andy > >> >> >> -- >> Markus Lanthaler >> @markuslanthaler >> >> > > > -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen Founder & CEO OpenLink Software Company Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Personal Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter/Identi.ca handle: @kidehen Google+ Profile: https://plus.google.com/112399767740508618350/about LinkedIn Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/kidehen
