Wow. Thank you, Owen! As a way not to lose these, I have done a crude  
page on the futurelib wiki with the contents of your mail, and promise  
to clean it up at some not too distant date:
   http://futurelib.pbworks.com/w/page/48408645/MARC%20in%20RDF

When/if I get the time, I will try to dig into the details of some of  
these and see how one could do a comparison. Obviously, if someone  
else is able to do that before I get to it, *please* post here!
