Well, here is the (somewhat obscure) scenario. We want to see if you can
visualize RDF in UML's class diagrams. We intend to do this by "importing" RDF
files to an UML editor and see how we can represent it in a class diagram and
the "exporting" it back to RDF to see if any information got lost. If it turns
out well it might be intresting to hava RDF importability in UML editors.

I thought that this might be a good entry for RDF but I may be mistaking as I
haven't seen the code. Thats why I asked...
