I half expected my thoughts to get garbaged, I didn't expect them to go without comment! I pitched them in to encourage people to stand back and think more fundamentally about RDF syntax. I appologise if I have offended anyone. I think that the conceptual side of RDF is great work. I also share the desire to help the Semantic Web take off. But I feel that the syntax is unnecessarily complex, confusing and goes against certain other XML technologies. I realise that the ideas I put forward are only preliminary thoughts and probably won't stand up to close stcrutiny, but are they worth pursuing? Are they so off the mark that they are not worth discussing? What are their pros and cons? Is it too soon after the RDF recommendation to suggest future 'improvements'? Should we just try to live with RDF as is? regards Lee
