Hi Ross

As of my understanding the callback chain is as follows:
...
def cb_start(args): pass
def cb_handle(args): pass
def cb_renderer(args): pass # here the renderer gets created
def cb_pathinfo(args): pass
...

So you should be fine if you rename your cb_start to cb_pathinfo.
I think ...

hth

ps: I thought the content-type for rdf was application/rdf+xml, is it not?
