RE: RDF API

I agree that we don't need a new wire protocol. An RDF query/manipulation
API could (should) be carried as XML over HTTP just like WebDAV is now. This
seems to be the way the world is going in general, and it's a good way to
go.

I am not sure we need a new protocol.
It should be possible to carry the description
of what I want over one of the existing
protocols (http, ...)

While it would be nice to describe the query
in RDF, but expressiveness and ease of use
are more important.
