I searched Freshmeat for "rdf":
- RDF writing and querying tools
- A parser and serializer for RDF/XML documents
- A Python library for processing RDF
- A store/viewer/editor framework for RDF
- An RDF parser and serializer library
- A PHP class for consuming RDF/RSS feeds
- An RDF query library
- An application statck for building RDF-based applications and Web sites
Fantastic. Has anybody actually written a practical tool that
uses RDF?
Yes... or rather Soon.

I'm in the midst of a collaboration on a Web App using RDF as the storage mechanisim. Also:
- KingUbu is working on a very large web app with RDF as the storage mechanisim.
- Michael Nachbaur is working on several projects that involve RDF as a storage mechanisim.
This is just the three people I happen to know who are using mod_perl and RDF. There are a number of non-perl projects using various RDF vocabs. See also FOAF, DOAP, Annotea, Creative Commons...

RDF (Rich Data Format) was originally intended to be a "generic" XML format pushed mainly by Netscape. So, RSS 1.0 (but not 0.9x or 2.0) is actually RDF. XUL, which controls the GUI, amongst other things, in Mozilla-based tools, is largely RDF.
