Yes:
The original RDF WG made a non-normative suggestion...
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-rdf-syntax-19990222/#transport
The RDF IG and RDF Core WG discussed problems with that suggestion...
Issue faq-html-compliance: The suggested way of including RDF meta data
in HTML is not compliant with HTML 4.01 or XHTML
http://www.w3.org/2000/03/rdf-tracking/#faq-html-compliance
It bubbled up to the TAG:
RDFinXHTML-35 : Syntax and semantics for embedding RDF in XHTML
http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/ilist#RDFinXHTML-35
(owner: yours truely)
The Semantic Web CG asked Joseph Reagle to start a task
force recently:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/
We're experimenting with WikiConsensus on the issue...

The wiki topic currently lists these examples:
///////
What sort of RDF metadata do folks want to put in their HTML documents,
anyway?
* bibliographic metdata; e.g. DublinCore (see also: [WWW]DC
extraction service)
* rights metdata; e.g. CreativeCommons
* geographic info: [WWW]discussion of geourl, HTML meta, and RDF
* news; e.g. [WWW]site summaries; also [WWW]How should HTML
content be represented? in an RSS wiki
* schemas and namespace documents; e.g. [WWW]HyperRDF, [WWW]RDDL
* foaf info; e.g. [WWW]how DanC manages his foaf stuff
* calendars and schedules; e.g. [WWW]DanC's travel schedule,
[WWW]schedScrape.xsl
