Subject: OASIS xNAL standards and RDF


Hi,

I am currently studying for my BSc(Hons) in computer Science at 
Heriot-Watt University.  For my dissertation I am developing an RDF/XML 
data model for bibliographic data (in particular for use in referencing 
sources). I have come across The OASIS xNAL (xNL and XAL) standards for 
person naming and was wondering if any attempt had been made to create an 
equivalent using the Resource Description Framework (RDF).  If you have 
heard of such an attempt or effort, could you point me in its direction.  
If not I believe it would be a useful exercise and in part I might be 
considering doing some of the work myself. 

Thanks for your help

Richard Lennox
