RE: URI for the concept of SOAP MEP?

I don't see anything about providing RDF descriptions in our charter.
There's only one mention of RDF and that's wrt data model transports and
serialization.

I'm not sure how far this will go and I'm a little concerned about the
precedent.  Do all the concepts that will be in any RDF mapping need to
be in a WG's RDF description?  If the generic problem is that a
description format references a concept from another spec and the rdf
mapping requires that the concept have a URI, does that mean that every
time a description format finds it needs a URI that originating
committee has to rev it's rdf mapping?

Further, does that mean that any WG that produces a spec that might be
described - and probably have an RDF mapping - will need to do RDF
descriptions for the RDF mapping of the description format?  

Cheers,
Dave
