I'm not sure what role RDF will play in Chandler. But one possibility 
would be to have an "RDF Layer" that deals with the storage and 
transportation (to PDAs, for example) of general RDF, and a "Presentation 
Layer" that interprets the RDF as events, people, email etc. and presents 
it to the user.

The advantage of this is that new RDF applications can easily be 
integrated. For instance, I might want to use Chandler to organise my CD 
collection: I only need write the code that presents a user interface to 
the RDF assertions that represent my data.
