RDF support?

[Patrick Durusau <patrick@durusau.net>]

Greetings!

Is RDF support on the roadmap for any of the implementers of ODF?

Despite my misgivings about RDF, it would clearly be superior to current 
metadata support in office software in general.

Not that I think we need to make changes but if we could encourage such 
support sooner rather than later, it could make a selling point for ODF.

The only metadata that could rival RDF support dodges vendor lock-in in 
favor of consultant/contractor lock-in. ;-)

I once maintained a network where the disk necessary to see the internal 
server settings was found to be blank. Yes. I was quite annoyed because 
there were monitoring/maintenance tasks that could not be performed 
without that disk. You may assume the contractor who installed the 
system long before I arrived had that disk.

You may assume from that story that I despise consultant/contractor 
lock-in in all its various forms.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
