Doesn't this imply that entailment is a defining characteristic of RDF i.e., the mechanism for RDF claims/statements interpretation? I ask because in recent times, there appears to be a line of thought that doesn't consider entailment as being the mechanism that's intrinsic to RDF. Basically, a piece of structured data is interpretable as RDF because an RDF processor understands RDF entailment. -- 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
