It does build on RDF as that is the previous layer explained. When making
a higher order logic language, though, RDF can be hte base formally but not
practically. One needs to define new XML namespaces for the logic,
as I have played with in http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Toolbox.
We don't have a white paper on the semantic web and we really need one.
So many things to do.... I hope one will be forthcoming by the end of the
summer.
