I don't think the PREMIS RDF vocabulary that Rob, John and I worked on
saw the light of day on the PREMIS discussion list. While I thought it
was a good start, I wasn't completely happy with the treatment of
identifiers, and a few other things.

A lot of work has gone into the PREMIS data model (as opposed to a
particular XML Schema) from a wide variety of folks in the digital
preservation community. My personal opinion is that an RDF vocabulary
for PREMIS would be an essential tool for a Linked Data practitioner
in the digital preservation area.
