  * Determine the parts of information to be converted to RDF, unless 
you really want *all* of the XML to be converted to RDF.

  * Locate that information in the XML Schemas

  * Use that to write some transformer (XSLT) to produce the RDF 
metadata according to your RDF Schema. That should be easy.

Of course this is just what comes in my mind right now. Perhaps others 
may be able to provide information on tools, cases etc.
