Re: Describing networks using RDF

Hi:
 As an "Observer" in the OASIS DCML committee - I believe the "RDF
description of Network" does not compete nor replicates the tasks currently
be worked by the TC membership.
  Personally speaking, I do look forward to using the RDF as a building
block of an 'IT Infrastructure Ontology' I am creating in protege - which I
plan to share with the DCML folks.
