Revisit "RDF is not just a data model; an RDF statement is an assertion"
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- Cleanup tasks
- Raised by:
- David Wood
- Opened on:
- 2011-05-03
- Description:
- See http://www.w3.org/2000/03/rdf-tracking/#rdfms-assertion
 rdfms-assertion: RDF is not just a data model; an RDF statement is an assertion.
 
 Propose to resolve CLOSE: RDF semantics establishes that RDF statements can be
 used to make claims about the world. Figuring out who exactly is
 making those
 assertions is beyond the scope of the core technology. Some of these
 concerns may be addressed by the 'named graph' activity; others by
 W3C's new
 Provenance WG - http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/wiki/Main_Page - and by
 other application vocabularies. See also
 http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/webid/charter
 for work linking cryptographically-assured notions of identity with RDF.

[LeeF]: RESOLVED: Close ISSUE-53 with no change, and with the explanation that RDF semantics establishes that RDF statements can be used to make claims about the world. Figuring out who exactly is making those assertions is beyond the scope of the core technology. Some of these concerns may be addressed by the 'named graph' activity; others by W3C's new Provenance WG - http://www.w3.org/201
