I can't help thinking that our problem is rhetoric and not
technology. ....
It sure seems that way to this spectator of the conversation.
To end this dispute about terminology, let's just cede "RDF agent" to
the logicists, and use another term, say, "RDF-based agent," for an
inference engine that uses RDF as its input and output notation.
The objection that there are no a-priori limits on what an RDF-based
agent can infer seems silly to me. Each RDF-based agent is to be
proposed in its own context and evaluated on whatever merits are
claimed for it.
