The RDF Primer provides the fundamentals required to use RDF in 
applications. The  RDF/XML Syntax Specification document updates the 
grammar in the Resource Description Framework (RDF) Model and Syntax 
Specification in terms of the XML Infoset and RDF Model Theory. RDF Model 
Theory Working Draft specifies model-theoretic semantics for RDF and RDF 
Schema. RDF Schema is a revision of the RDF Schema Candidate Recommendation

declare and relate RDF vocabularies. RDF Test Cases provide a documented 
set of examples that correspond to technical issues the Working Group is 
addressing.
