What kind of dependency would that be (e.g.: requires to implement all or part of RDF? May require to change something in the implementation following a change in RDF? Requires the implementor to understand RDF? ...)? Isn't it possible to make RIF XML "silently" valid RDF/XML, in the sense that an RDF implementation can handle a RIF document as RDF (possibly with some additional info, e.g. a RIF vocabulary or whatever), but a RIF implementation does not need to know about RDF (and is not dependent on RDF)?
