Could the metaphor perhaps be pushed into a sub-heading?

"Publishing RDF Vocabularies: Server Configuration Recipes", for eg?

I prefer "RDF vocabs" to "RDFS and OWL"; to me, RDFS and OWL are 
technologies for decribing RDF vocabs, just a the new rules language
from the RIF WG will be. 

I prefer "publishing" to "serving"; but only mildly.

Sorry I missed the telecon btw :(
