I've reviewed your message [1] that prompted this issue to be raised, and 
the only issues I see that may not be fully covered by withdrawal of the 
social issues discussion are:

(a) distinguishing between asserted and non-asserted forms.  Since the RDF 
language doesn't make such distinction (per the formal semantics), and this 
was only an issue in the discussion of social meaning, it seems that there 
is no further need to mention this.

(b) the idea of comments containing "defining information".  In the absence 
of any social dimension in the RDF specification, I'm not sure how this 
remains a concern.

If there is more that is not addressed here, please indicate what you think 
we are overlooking.
