It's not all member submission Notes...

eg. http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-rdf-schema/ (new version as of last week)

...is the result of a W3C working group for RDF Schemas. 
It addresses some but not yet all of the issues in the TimBL/DanC paper
and looks, from where I'm standing, to be pretty complimentary to the
ideas behind the DCD submission.

The nearest I've found to something looking remotely like a master plan
is the publically available overview note at http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-rdfarch
