(Re: FAQ questions 3.10 + 3.11)

I updated 3.10 in the FAQ as follows:

=== Is RIF useful for reasoning about the provenance of claims  
expressed in RDF, eg. multiple named graphs in SPARQL that offer  
competing accounts of some situation? ===

If the differing named graphs are located in different web documents,  
then RIF with RDF compatibility (see [http://www.w3.org/TR/rif-rdf- 
owl]) has an import mechanism that can be directed to the specific web  
documents and reason about them. More refined notions of import that  
allow to explicitly refer to facts from different imported documents  
per rule could be covered in extended RIF dialects.
