I'd prefer to leave this at "language" rather than "framework". I admit that RDF has "framework" in it, but we never actually say what a "framework" is (and the Concepts document starts off immediately talking about "syntax", which seems more of a "language" notion). If we're going to describe this as a "framework", I'd feel some compulsion to say what we mean by that (including how the "language" aspects of RDF fit into that "framework"). --Frank Brian McBride wrote: > > The two other docs that have such an introductory sentence both use the > term language, not framework. > > Brian > > > At 14:07 22/11/2002 +0100, Jeremy Carroll wrote: > > > >> Did that thread resolve satisfactorily ... >> >> Concepts start off now >> >> "The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a framework for representing >> information in the Web." >> >> I note this is logically equalivant to, the slightly less clumsy: >> >> "The Resource Description Framework (RDF) represents information in the >> Web." >> >> However, it's much more important that we all have the same one. >> >> Jeremy > > -- Frank Manola The MITRE Corporation 202 Burlington Road, MS A345 Bedford, MA 01730-1420 mailto:fmanola@mitre.org voice: 781-271-8147 FAX: 781-271-875
