Re: Importing RIF documents from RDF - last attempt

If the potential issue that we have two different semantics 
 "RIF with rif:imports"
and 
 "RIF pure" 
is not considered problematic by any other than me, that'd be sufficient.

I am well aware that what I am tempted to argue for (putting it within rif-rdf-owl stll) 
would cause a considerable pain now, but I think at the same time that avoiding this 
separation could save us some major interoperability pain later on. I would be very happy 
about any comments/ideas from others that could ease my concern. :-)
