Yes, the new formalism in the Editor's Draft <URL: http://ilrt.org/discovery/2001/07/rdf-syntax-grammar/ > is *much* better. In particular, the distinction between 'resourcePropertyElt', 'literalPropertyElt', and (presumably, once it's fully described, 'emptyPropertyElt') answers my original question. This also answers another question I had concerning the interpretation of unprefixed attributes (rdf:ID vs. ID). --Joe English jenglish@flightlab.com
