More on the latest ISSUE-12 proposal

http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/wiki/StringLiterals/LanguageTaggedStringDatatypeProposal

I've added a table that summarizes the current situation with literals in RDF, and a second table that shows the changes implied by this proposal.

Also, I've changed the name rdf:LanguageTaggedLiteral to rdf:LanguageTaggedString, for clarity. We should find a shorter name anyways. Pat proposed rdf:Text.

Objections are currently:

- cost of change to existing implementations
- effect on OWL unclear

Best,
Richard
